Stolen from Road and Track:

Calling them "the world's first mass-produced carbon fiber wheels," (Koenigsegg and aftermarket offerings notwithstanding) Ford says that the carbon fiber wheels weigh a mere 18 pounds each, compared to around 33 pounds for a comparable aluminum wheel. This, Ford claims, adds up to a 60-pound total reduction in unsprung weight, and a 40-percent drop in rotational inertia.
Comparable sized one-piece forged wheels will clock in around 20-22 lbs.

The 19" GTPP wheels weighed between 32-33lbs. The GT350 wheels are likely that weight based on the weight of the car we have since it was weighed today.

Looking for actual weight. As "comparable" can vary by upwards of 10lbs depending on OEM wheel options for other makes.
