The large diameter / small width helps, but the weight works against you

They are actually remarkably light weight. BMW made the profile of the spokes surprisingly thin and very flat on the back side. I wouldn't guess the wheel and tire combo is much over 35 lbs. total. I don't believe I am likely to gain much with wheel discs, but obviously I am going to try. Fairing the rear wheels however is another story. Probably lots of cleanup possible there.
I'll be removing them again soon and will check.
