Cyipher did you ever weigh your front rims alone or your rim and tire combo?

Well I went the cheap route, went with aluminum spares for the front and they weigh 15 lbs. I went with the coker excelsior 16" tires and I was a bit dissappointed they weighed 18lbs per tire .

the cheap summit fast five 15" wheels weigh 17 lbs so that was nice. the 27*10.5*15 mt street bias weigh 22lbs and that is also nice and light

I bought these cokers through summit special order http://store.cokertire.com/500-525-1...wall-tire.html

these are more common because they've been around longer but i heard they were heavier
