Anyone happen to know the wheel weight for the ellipsoid sport wheels? Trying to compare weight vs. width gains on some aftermarket wheels.

Anyone know where to pickup a single 19" ellipsoid wheel at a decent price? BMW dealer has it for $706 installed!

Problem is ebay is where I got the current one. I bought the set of 4 19 ellipsoids w/tires on ebay last winter. When I put them on this summer I noticed a little shake in the steering wheel. Tire shop says they balance ok but one looks a litle bent. How can it balance ok if the rim is bent? So Im hesitant to get another one from ebay. Maybe someone here in bimmerfest - I'll check the classifieds here.
