Default What does my rim/tire weigh?

I'm shipping out my factory polished 18" Bullitts with 235/50/18 tires and need to know the approx. weight of each. ONE of my new rim/tires arrived today and it's a 20x10" with a 285/30/20 tire. It weighs 32lbs, per the FedEx sticker. The 20x9" fronts w/tire weigh 29lbs each. I'm having FedEx pick up my rims and will be calling them to pay for labels to print out.

What do you guys think I should tell them each one weighs?

Thanks a lot!

Take it down to USPS in its box and weigh it. They have the scales in the lobby.

Thanks, but I was hoping to figure it out someone online so I wouldn't have to bother with transporting it. FedEX is picking it up at my house. If I can't find a site/get some info on it, I'll be doing that.

Thanks!

I did some research on wheel/tire weights a few months ago. I have the factory 18" bullitt wheels with the 235/50/18s. Looking online, I determined that the wheel weights 25 lbs and the tire weighs 30 lbs.

So 55 lbs for each tire and wheel.
