CGT wheel weight info

got a chance to weight those forged magnesium suckers. forgot to weight them with tires off without air but how heavy is the air?

Front 9.5 x 19 - 22.2lbs

Rear 12.5 x 20 - 30lbs

Front with PS2 265/35 ZR 19 (24lbs) - 46.2lbs

Rear with PS2 335/30 ZR 20 (32.4lbs) - 62.4lbs

pretty impressive!




Bill,
hope this helps.

Making a few assumptions I calculated for the rear tire 339 gram or 0.747 pounds of air.
