Who's knows the the weight of the steeda wheel and tire?

Menace

I think that Steeda wheel weighs around 20 lbs. A tire for it would probably weigh around 30lbs. So you're still looking at 50 lbs.

Yeah, you'd be very hard pressed to get a wheel/tire combo under 45lb for anything 17" & up. Most wheels are in the 22-35lb range and the tires are 24-30lb range for wheels & tires 17" to 20"...........
Why do you think NHRA cars still use 15" wheels?

I cant imagine what chrome 20s way , i had my car a week with the stock 17s and it was a lot easier to smoke than my fanblades but my dealer offered to switch the wheels free of charge because somebody ordered a car with 17s and it came in wrong and he was apparently furious with the fanblades and IMO they look a lot nicer so i said what the hell. You really do have to sacrafice looks for performance

Diabolical!

I considered 18" steeda ultralites, but when I called steeda, they told me that they weigh over 25 lbs. each! I ditched that Idea and went with the 17" stockers instead.

Jerjan: I wrote down the weight of the stock 17"s with pirellis, as well as the stock 17"s with the M/Ts, I'm at work right now, but I'll post the #s when I get home.

I just spoke to Steeda...the wheels I was looking at (18x9.5 Pentars) weigh 31 pounds. I was also looking at 18" Razors which (per Tire Rack) weigh only 26.5 pounds), so I'll likely go with the razors...seems like they are the lightest 18" out there.

You inspired me to see how much Saleen Replica'sw/ tires weighed. 57 pounds according to my calculations [:@].

That sucks...What in the hell is the point of calling them "Ultralites" - bastards... The thing is, I thought they HAD to be lite to make up for how ugly those things are. They look like mag bicycle rims for Christ's sake.

Hmm, I guess I have started some curiosity here. Anyone else have any input? I gotta believe I could drop quite a few pounds going with lightweight 17" wheels and tires. What I'm finding out is that even the companies that say their wheels are lightweight are not always telling the truth. I guess maybe some of them are lightweight compared to wheels for a dumptruck!

At 54 pounds they're lightweights compared to the PAX set-up on my Odyssey whichtip the scales at 75 pounds each!
