  • Stock 18" wheel weight, anyone know?

    I'm considering going to 19" or 20" rims, but I would like to know the weight of the stock 18" rim before doing this..

    I dont want to put a lot of extra weight into a rim.

    Thanks for the info.

    It seems to me that I read 20-21# a while back.
    04 CTS-V......like a G6, but with an extra 200hp, a proper transmission, and it is correct wheel drive:

      That just seems a little light, but that is just a gut feeling.

      Centerline has some rims in 18" that weigh in at only 18lbs, so I guess it's possible..

      The Zinik Minardi's I am looking at are 25 for the chrome and 23.4 for the black. Could there really be 1.6 pounds of chrome ?

        The weights for the Zinardis are probably right. Chrome is traditionally very heavy.

        SSR makes 18" wheels that only weigh 14.5#. 21 is about average for an 18, especially since it is only 7" wide.

                  awesome. Centerlines are sick rims. I'm eyeing a set myself right now. Be sure to consider the weight of the tires too. The Toyo Proxes T1-S or maybe the new T1-R would be my pick.

                        BFF? = butt f*** friend? ') j/k man.

                        Good to know the weight.

                        Just curious but how many times did you weigh it and you? Try doing it 3 times for each.

                          You want me to take my fat ass out to the shed again to get the rim so that I can get a dead on number?

                          BFF.. lol.. haha

                            Hell yes! 22 isn't bad, especially for a stocker.
