I'm not trying to be rude. But you can't expect someone else to do the work for you since you're the one who's spending the money.

And remember..... caveat emptor!!

Yes I can -- they are making the money I'd be spending.

How exactly does a consumer make this determination without buying multiple sets of everything?

If a manufacturer is going to take the time to build a product and gather evidence of its effectiveness on the dyno, he might as well at least show it's better than a high flow panel filter -- that is not an unreasonable request.

Neither is it unreasonable to ask that dealers selling wheels provide some basic info about the wheel. They have them on hand to weigh; I don't until I buy it.

Some companies/dealers already do this -- I'm humbly asking that more do the same.

I'm not asking for exhaustive R&D here...
