FRPP has shipping weight at 25lbs, box weighs almost nothing so that should be pretty close. If you have digital scale you can check this.

Hmmm, now I need to find out the weight of my new replacement rims to make sure they aren't substantially heavier.

When i bought my Bullit wheels from saleen, they came in individual boxes. I do remember the weight on the Fed-Ex label on the box as 38lbs. Keep in mind that this is the weight with the Perellie tires already mounted. Hope that helps.

Damn, switching to my 18" Shelby wheeels I picked up 10 lbs per wheel (based on the bullitts being 25 lbs each)! Of course, then when you add the additional weight of the new wider tires that figure will be even more. So how many HP do you lose per extra pound of unsprung weight? [:@]
