Fanblade Weight

Anyone know what the weight of the stock Fanblade wheels?

The 18s?

Thanks

Thanks very much

Matt I don't know if it's good or bad. There are a lot of 18s out there that are lighter, but I'm sure there are some that aren't.

I'm getting the Ford GT wheels and they weigh in at around 20 so at 6.5 pounds more I'm hoping I'll notice a difference. There's some formula for how much actual rotating weight gives but I don't know what it is.

Since were talking about wheel/tire weight I'd thought I'd throw in the weight of a 17" GT Upgrade wheel (Concept car look). With the factory Pirelli's they weigh in a 50lbs a piece.

Not bad, that would make the wheel 22lbs using Tirerack's 28lbs for the stock Pirelli. Also for comparison, I have 17x9 black bullit replica with 274/40 V710 that weigh 44.5lbs.
