your link shows a spreadsheet
Toyota Prius 01-03

weight 13 lbs / KG 5.8967012

that seems very light
Yes, that's light, but not as light as the contemporary seventh gen Civic HX wheels would have been at about 11 lbs and not as light as the fifth gen Civic VX at 9.7 lbs., so it is entirely within the real of believability. Light wheels, good for FE, and the VX, HX, and Prius were designed to be champs in that category.

See my car's mod & maintenance thread and my electric bicycle's thread for ongoing projects. I will rebuild Black and Green over decades as parts die, until it becomes a different car of roughly the same shape and color. My minimum fuel economy goal is 55 mpg while averaging posted speed limits. I generally top 60 mpg. See also my Honda manual transmission specs thread.
