Interesting information I just found out today.
The Miro 111 are low pressure cast wheels, which are lighter and stronger than the more common gravity cast variety (ie: VMR).
For your reference...

The 19" Miro's are about a pound lighter than 18" VMR's? Wild... That's good info... Can you measure some 20's next time too by chance?
