If anyone was wondering...
I contacted BBS, and apparently each one of the 20 inch sepang wheels is 15.5kg (34.1 lbs). That's incredibly heavy. Just though I'd mention it since I couldn't find anything about the wheel online.
Then you add on the tyre weight and you end up with a very heavy wheel that is really too much for the more elderly readers on this forum, (like myself !!!). I don't think my 17" wheels with fat tyres are much lighter. So nowadays if I am left at the roadside with a puncture, I call the AA.
Very interesting.
I always wondered whether the BBS Sepang's, which replaced the Callisto's that are mounted on the 2006 Super V8 Portfolio, were forged or cast.
I can tell you that the 20" x 9" Callisto's are much much lighter (I measured 10.5 kg per wheel). They are forged!

I had 20 inch Sepangs on my 2005 XK8 Coupe. Liked the design but not impressed with the build quality.
