I don't have access to a scale at work. I have the 6.5's if it makes any difference? Thanks.

From what I have read most all the 15" al. wheels weigh about 22lbs. give or take a lb. or two.

measured on my sliding weight doctors scale, the made in the USA versions are 18.5lbs and the UK versions are 19lbs. Both are 6.5" crabs.

I can't belive this thread is still going. Everyone See post #5. Very accurate sliding weight scale. 18.5 for the US casting and 19 for the Limey Casting. Fibberide's are 19lbs on the same scale.

actually for a stock maufacturer's wheel, seems fairly light to me.....could be much worse!!

i have some 205/50r15 on 6.0 wide crabs that weigh 39 lbs combo.. the 245/40r17s weigh like 42 a corner and i had some 225/40r18 that weighed 40 a corner.. you can get a lot more performance for the same weight with lighter wheels, but its all about money, i know how that goes......
