Anyone know the weight of the new 19s?

Probably very close the original OEM 19" wheels according to a Tesla engineer:

OEM Weights:

• 19" Wheels: 13.74kg ~30.2 lbs.
• 19" All Season Tires: 27 lbs (Eagle RS-A2 245/45 19")
• Factory 19" Wheel+Tire+TPMS+Center cap: 58.6 lbs.

• 21" Wheels: 35 lbs.
• 21" Continental Extreme Contact DW Tires: 26 lbs.
• Factory 21" Wheel+Tire+TPMS+Center cap: 62.4 lbs.

Not sure why this is in the Model X forum, aside from the fact that the new Model S base wheels are a 19" version of the same design used for the Model X base wheels.

I was just going to say: are these not basically the same as the default 20" option on Model X?

Maybe Tesla is just trying to synchronize their design language somewhat?
