Subject: What do Dakota wheels weigh ?
IP: Logged

Message:
A few month back I purchased RT rims for my truck. I was surprised how much more they weigh than the 15x8 Sport rims. I have been curious to see how much they weigh, and how much difference they make on the Dyno. I weighed each wheel and tire and this is what I found.

Goodyear LS/ 25" Sport Wheel 255/65/15 (50 lbs)
Firehawk SS20/ 15" Sport wheel275/60/15 (52 lbs)
Nitto NT450/ 17"RT wheel 275/50/17 (62 lbs)
20" RT wheel and tire (thanks Duner) (72 lbs)

I have rented the Chassis dyno today for an hour to see what effect the two tire combos have on RWHP. I will use the Firehawks 15", and the Nitto 17". This will also give me a baseline HP prior to installing the HO cams, Intake, Leach PCM re-flash, and maybe some new injectors.
