Default 2017 A4 5-spoke Wheel Weight?

Does anyone know the weight of the five spoke 18x8 wheels on the American version of the 2017 Audi A4? These are the two color five spoke wheels on the premium plus quatro model. Part number 8W0601025M.

I have contacted Audi Parts and everybody else without luck. Can't seem to get a weight on these wheels. Rough estimate is around 27 pounds, but I'm not sure if I believe that. Thanks.

I don't know the weight of the just the wheel itself, but the wheel and tire together weigh 56 pounds which is lighter than I expected it to be.

Audi parts guy told me about 25 for the 18's and 27 for 19's. Both pretty heavy.

The 18 inch tire should be about 25 lbs going by what tirerack lists. A 56 pound combination of tire and wheel would mean the wheel weighs about 31 lbs. A 25 lb wheel makes more sense and wouldn't be that heavy if it is to be used year round in snow during winters. Will a light weight alloy wheel make it thru a bunch of winters?

So far I've heard 31 and 25 here, and a bunch of different numbers from people selling them on eBay. I've heard 27, 28, and even one guy at hubcaphaven who insists they weigh 38 lbs each. I wish Audi would just list it in the specs. Wheel weight is fairly important.

I called Audi Customer service and they looked it up overnight. The official weight is 26.12 lbs or 11.84 kg. A seller on eBay weighed one on the scale at his shop and said the weight is 26.8. So, in the 26 lb range.
