I'm pretty sure that they do rim weight only in the description, especially since they will state if it's a lightweight wheel.

the frpp one is taking into consideration the whole packaging:

Package Dimensions: 11.75H x 20.00W x 20.00D Weight: 34.00#
i would definately go with what tire rack states.

the ct-r's back rims weigh the same, 28 lbs. the fronts are 26 lbs... but yeah, the weight difference from the stock 17s is pretty noticeable.
