baldy,

when i sold the wheels off my GT i had to weigh them for shipping; the front was ~ 30lbs and the rear was ~ 40lbs (w/ sprocket). they were 120/70 ff and 180/50 rr.
it goes w/out saying... they are insanely heavy.
switching to modern tires only abates the groove following issue (which the oem tires are notorious for), but does not help w/ weight (since you still use tubes).

hope that helps.
