Wheel and tire weight.
Does anyone have an idea what a set of lightweight wheels weigh with street tires mounted. I did a search and couldn't really come up with anything. I had my car up on stands over the weekend, changed out pads an bled the brakes. I weighed my wheels while they were off. Fronts 46 lbs. rears 49 lbs. What I'm wondering is what do a set of Fikse FM10's for example weigh with the tires mounted.

It will depend on the brand and size of the tire. Here are a few
Fikse FM10 7.5x17 w/215/45 41#
Fikse FM10 9x17 w/ 255/40 46#
Kinesis K5 8x17 18# bare, w/235/45 42#
Kinesis K5 9.5x17 19# bare, w/275/40 49#
Fikse FM10 7.5x17 w/215/45 41#
Fikse FM10 9x17 w/ 255/40 46#
Kinesis K5 8x17 18# bare, w/235/45 42#
Kinesis K5 9.5x17 19# bare, w/275/40 49#

This is what I'm looking for. Thanks for all the posts. I'm trying to compare my current wheel weights with expensive light weight wheels. The wheels I want to buy are Fikse Profil 5S. Black/Polished. My current weight being 49/46, I can't justify the $3000 + for the Fikse set.
