txl146 Posted September 15, 2005 Share Posted September 15, 2005 I am thinking about getting them for winter and would like to know how heavy they are compared to other OEM rims like WRX and STi. Thanks in advance! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Th3Franz Posted September 15, 2005 Share Posted September 15, 2005 Heavier and not as wide as STi rims.. Old WRX has 16" rims. New 06 WRX has 17" rims. -Franz The end of a Legacy http://www.youtube.com/th3franz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
richip Posted September 15, 2005 Share Posted September 15, 2005 Does anyone know how heavy the LGT rims are? Gotta know, at least, how they'll compare to new rims come the day that I get one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wukindada Posted September 15, 2005 Share Posted September 15, 2005 17" wheel & stock Bridgestone tire come in @ about 35lbs;) Toyota 6EATS .........SUCK!!!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
txl146 Posted September 15, 2005 Author Share Posted September 15, 2005 are you sure about that? I highly doubt that. Even 16" RE92 weigh about 20-21 lbs each. My guess is: 19 lbs: RIM 23 lbs: Tire Total: 42 lbs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wukindada Posted September 15, 2005 Share Posted September 15, 2005 I just shipped a set.. The total weight including the boxes & lugs was 149lbs Toyota 6EATS .........SUCK!!!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
txl146 Posted September 15, 2005 Author Share Posted September 15, 2005 Hmm... it's hard to believe that 17" rim will weigh less than 14 lbs. according to Tirerack.com, RE92 weighs 23 lbs in 215/45/17 size. 16" stock WRX rim weighs around 16 lbs.

HansGT Posted September 15, 2005 Share Posted September 15, 2005 are you sure about that? I highly doubt that. Even 16" RE92 weigh about 20-21 lbs each. My guess is: 19 lbs: RIM 23 lbs: Tire Total: 42 lbs +1 42-43lbs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rallispec Posted September 15, 2005 Share Posted September 15, 2005 It's been discussed before, i believe 43lbs is the consensus. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LittleBlueGT Posted September 15, 2005 Share Posted September 15, 2005 42.2 for me. Full tune of 68HTA, KSTech 73 MAF, Racer X FMIC and ID1000s................by the DataLog Mafia!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WRBlu Posted September 19, 2005 Share Posted September 19, 2005 If I am not wrong, it should weigh around 38-40lbs. What I remember : my 18X8 GC-05 Prodrive with Goodyear Eagle F1 was about 1lb lighter than the stock OEM 17" rim and tyre. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
