http://www.jadatoys.com/ makes them. I don't think they sell the Spintek rims by themselves (yet). But I'm sure they will in the future.

The real wheels are actually not that heavy just b/c they have the spinner on them. The wheel is heavy b/c of its size, but its still not that heavy. The spinners are just a gyro which in retrospect is nothing special and makes you quesiton why they took so long to make something like that with "old" technology.
I think the real ones would be pretty damn heavy. A "Blingin" 20inch rim weighs about 50lbs (22.7kg for you non-Americans ) If you add a couple diameter inches, and the spinning front piece that would be even heavier. So I think the could get over 60lbs per rim!!
