<Best professor voice possible>
Class, today's lesson will be on converting pounds to kilograms. Before you can start converting pounds to kilograms you must first find the conversion rate. A quick look on google will find that 1 pound is equal to 2.2 kg. Hence to convert pounds to kilograms you simply divide your weight in pounds by 2.2.

Example 1:
A front wheel on a 2005 Ford Mustang GT weights 11.9 pounds. Using our conversion rate, we find that:
11.9/2.2 = 5.4 kg

Example 2:
A rear wheel on a 2005 Ford Mustang GT weights 11.1 pounds. Using our conversion rate, we find that:
11.1/2.2 = 5.0 kg

An that concludes today's lesson
</End best professor voice>

Also, here is a handy-dandy calculator I found online for you so you can covert all of your future measurements to kg.

Ummm.. Professor... While your math is correct, your explination is not.

1lb is NOT equil to 2.2kg.. If that was the case, you would MULTIPLY lbs x 2.2...

....smart *** kid in the back of the room voice off....

Thanks for the help guys but let me rephrase. My NEW deep dish wheels weigh 11.9 KG and 11.10 KG. They go on tommorrow. I would like to know how much the STOCK wheels weigh in comparison. In KG, Pounds, whatever. The STOCK wheels I have on now are the ones pictured below
