Don't have a hissy, please.

BBS CH

18x8.5 = 23.9 lbs
18x10 = 25.42 lbs
19x8.8 = 24.1
19x10 = 27.9

At least you got the 19" rear correct. These numbers are straight off the BBS website. Still, I never said these things were as light as forged wheels did I? I just stated they were a good bargain and light for cast (and truthfully not much heavier than the forged BBS LM). Actually, they're a step up from cast as they rim is rolled to shape from a much more shallow casting giving it greater strength and lighter weight than a typical cast wheel rim.
