Wheel Weight?
Has anyone weighed the 17" Forte sedan rim? I wanted to know what my base weight is when looking at aftermarket rims.

Thanks

So I weighed one rim/tire combo and got 43.2 lbs on the scale. That puts the 17" sedan rim at about 22 lbs. each based on tirerack.com reporting the stock tire weight at 21 lbs. each. Hope this helps anyone who might be looking for lighter wheels.

Remove the wheel/tire combo and use a bathroom scale.
