The middle layer and the outer part of the rim are .095" or .100".[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-tongue.gif[/img]

The rolled edge is stronger and I think they're hardened or at least hard anodized. I don't know how much lighter if any they would be with the extra material for the rolled edge and the added layer between the two halves.

So, the inside is a 125 and the outside is even thinner 95 or 100, half the thickness of a 190. But it's beefed up where it bolts to the hub with another layer of 95 or 100, between that and the rolled edge I'm guessing that they would weigh about the same as a 160 but are probably as strong as a 190 maybe stronger.
