Just bought a set of R81's. they weigh 12lbs. Custom machined polycarbonate rings for another $100 and you can use stock tires.

Good point on the rings - The mini wheels hub is larger than ours and the lug holes are huge in comparison to ours, so you really need to use hubcentric rings or special lugcentric lug nuts with them.

That's cool that you had some rings machined - When I bought my 5 spoke mine wheels I looked everywhere for hubcentric rings, but couldn't find any of the correct size. I ended up using lugcentric lug nuts that I found at Jegs:
