They aren't magnesium wheels, lol.

Very few wheels are magnesium now.

The TE37s are forged monoblock aluminum.here is how they do it.

The CE28N is also monoblock forged aluminum. The 14x5.5 CE28N supposedly weighs only 6.39 lbs. I thought the TE37's were the lightest, but obviously I was wrong.

Hmm, anyone know of anything lighter than 6.39lbs for 14x5.5 wheels? Not sure if that is possible, lol.
