IMO 11kgs for an 18" is considered relatively light if you compare it with other 18" rims out there... (i've heard of one that weighs 16kgs each! :shock:)
without sounding like a brag, my P1 rims are known to be one of the lightest rims around coz they are at about 8-9kgs each (17 inch). you can get even lighter ones but they will cost you an arm & leg...
the only bad thing i can think of about an 18" rim that weighs 11kg is that you still have to pay for it LoL...
but seriously, the lighter the rim, the less unsprung weight hence:
1. better handling
2. marginally quicker accelleration
3. less kerb weight
