Tire rack does list weights. Not sure how accurate they are though.

Does tire rack list tire weights? Has anyone weighed the stock Bridgestones?

Yes they do and I have only weighed the complete tire rim and tpms sensor it was about 45.5 lbs total

WOW the stockers are heavy!!! i had 295-50-15 on centerline 3pc rims on my lincoln that i had and those were 42lbs with some cheap (i think avenger gt) chinese burnout tires on em.

Tire rack lists the stock Bridgestones at 19 pounds each.

If the stock Bridgestones are 19# and the new wheels are 16.4# then we're at 35.4# per corner. Not bad. Not bad at all.

Made an appointment on Friday to get my tires switched over, mounted, balanced and installed. And Friday is my birthday too! Wish my exhaust was here!

Looks fantastic OP! However, I might humbly suggest your considering some mud flaps now, especially for the rears, to prevent rocks and other road debris from eating up your paint…!

Man, those are really good looking wheels! Congrats

A small set of mudflaps would be worth getting and I will soon look into that. I don't want the flaps that stick out like 2-3 inches, though.

Thank you for the compliments.

Mine in flat black get installed tomorrow. Expect photos.

Or if you don't plan on tracking the wheels these plastic versions should be fine:

Thanks!

Do you know if you can get this finish in 16" rim size? I know the black finish MR125 is shown on their site, so it must be possible... Has the ride improved at all? I really like how these rims look, but I would imagine there would be some weight savings (and ride improvement) if I went to 16s.
