I've had this OZ wheel on my old car (18"x8J), only 18.8lbs each. So I guess 19" should be around 20lbs each.
Cost is HKD2.4K each (18x8J), get a quote from a few resellers to see price tag, I guess it will be around HKD4K each.

It's the price level for 19" light weight wheels (especially forged wheels), BBS LM costs HKD11K and HKD13K, and BBS RS-GT costs even more. If price is a concern, go for 18" forged wheels, they are more economical (the tyres for 18" are much cheaper too!).

may be lighter=less material=less cost=lower price.

Capt. Your logic have some issue.
The breyton GTS cost HKD$ 4.5k each for 19", 19'' - appro 13kgs = 28.6lbs <---- According from Keith info
Advan RS/RS-D la, 19x9.0 20.6lbs only. Less 8 lbs each wheel
<-------------- According from ET info
Do you think that Advan should price less than Breyton?
Of course lighter not means everything, but should be one of important factor for user to choice.

The Advan is really light if its only 20.6lbs!!
As me and pinguhk took a 18" GTS on hands the other day and the weight was really impressive already,
i can take it very easily with one hand with on efforts.
But you are right, the most important thing is the user's choice, the style is more important than the weight!!
We are not street racer, we just the poser
And, i dont need light weight wheels as i am very light weight already

looked at OZ before, good price and light weight and made in Italy. 
but they need to installed the supplied spacers to fit e60, I didn't want spacers so passed it.
