Weight of stock steel wheels on xB

Anyone know what the weight is? I have seen 12 lbs quoted here but I kinda feel that is a little high. I'm thinking more like 9 or 10 lbs.
Also, any aftermarket wheels out there that are close to the stock wheel weight??

yep, about 36lbs tire and wheel. i was just as shocked when i found out too. i'd ordered a set of wheels and found out tire/wheel would be 38lbs and was like, nope that ain't gonna work. then found out it was only like a 2lb increase in weight.
