Art's has them listed at 1794 grams, factory at 1673, sounds like yours are closer to 1673 then. My NSWs weigh 1522 on my scales.
That's a third of a pound, not minor... but the difference in retail isn't either. And I do wish they were wider.... If I had to pay retail rather than sponsor thing, I'd be on those HEDs. Best deal going.
But, they perform BETTER (according to the test being discussed) than the deeper 808s...so you aren't comparing apples to apples on performance ;-)
edit: BTW, when I built up my custom bike, the Hed Jet6+ Black wheelset was the ONLY component to come in UNDER the stated manufacturer weight (by a couple grams). So that Art's weight sounds fishy...or, includes other items like tape or skewers.
