Default FS: Customized "Silver Petal Fuchs" Sport Classic Wheels & Tires

https://rennlist.com/forums/market/1293006
I posted these in the marketplace and thought the group might be interested either in the process or this set.

When I acquired my 2012 997.2 C2S it came with original-build Sport Classic wheels. After 20k miles the clearcoat was discolored / peeling in places.
My local Porsche restoration shop (AAOC - Auto Associates of Canton) recommended painting them in the classic Fuchs style as re-machining and clear coating is a challenge and could result in the same issue down the road.
I got a set of BBS LM-Rs and then brought the OEM set to the shop. When completed, I put them on the car for the photo attached and and realized I prefer the BBS.

Front 8.5" x 19" ET 55 (25 lbs each) with Michelin PS2 N-spec 235/35-19 dated 2817 at 8/32 tread.
Rear 11.5" x 19" ET 67 (29 lbs each) with Michelin PS2 N-spec 295/30-19 dated 1116 and 1216 at 8/32 tread.

I've never seen a set refinished like this in the market so am not sure what to ask. Let's try $4,500 or best reasonable offer?Pick-up preferred - Wheel & Tire Package located in Central CT.
If all you want is the wheels, caps, and stems/sensors, I can have the tires removed and I do have shipping boxes for wheels this size. Shipping to ConUS at Buyer's expense.
Value is based on the wheels, center caps, and stems/sensors because of the date codes on the tires.

Absolutely stunning! If mine ever get curbed or scuffed up, I know what path I’m going down now. GLWS!

Do you know how much a bare rear wheel and a bare front wheel weigh, each?
