What's your criteria?.....Look? Subjective. Weight? Probably on the heavy side.......
Finish? Probably very nice. I've seen Flik wheels in person (although not the wasps) and they had a very nice finish. Looked like a good, quality wheel.

18x7.5 wasps with 225/40 s03s are ~50lbs. not what i'd consider light.
that's including the ~4lbs of weights er added to the rims. =/
they're 10lbs heavier than my 18" fikses wrapped in pirellis. 8o

The tire is the biggest weight there...
My BBS SX 18x8 with S03 225/40/18 were 50lbs...the wheel was 22lbs on it's own...
The Toyo T1S are one of the lightest tires out there apparently...

cool. we can assume the tires weigh ~26lbs or so.
i'm leaving some open for balance weights.
therefore .. i'd say the 18x7.5 wasps weigh about the same as the 18x8 bbs sx minus a pound or so in the neighborhood of 20-22lbs each.
