Thanks. I'm assuming this is without tires?

That would be correct.
Wheel only weight.

Yes, definitely wheels only. My 18" Velas came in at 49 and 53 mounted, and based upon these weights, it looks like the Gyrodynes mounted are about 58 and 62.

I could do myself a huge favor by putting the Velas back on, but I just don't like the look.
