I remember reading a thread from midnightsun about how he was considering switching back to his stock wheels & tires because they were lighter. Has anyone taking the time to weigh their wheels & tires? I am specifically interested in knowing the weight of the stock 18's with rubber for the c awd but would like to see the weight of all others, stock & aftermarket if anyone has those numbers. Thanks.

I weighed my stock set at 56 pounds each (tire/wheel). The new chrome wheels with wider tires hit at +10 pounds per wheel/tire combo. The wheels were 18", bigger can weigh "a lot" more...
tis 03 22's are 49lbs each according to my shipping labels tires i believe were 32 lbs each. wow, that sucks up some power but i see a lot of rubberneckin'!
