RIP My Friend
All I know is they are heavy. Just replaced my Winters (stock 18"'s) with my Helo 20"'s with Nitto 420S. My back is killing me.

A good friend will come and bail you out of jail...but, a true friend will be sitting in the cell next to you saying, "Damn...that was fun!"
New 300c rims with Conti tires weigh about 55lbs-56lbs. 24lbs rims, 31lbs tires, about. After 13k miles, my wheels lost 4lbs. So used tires will weigh less.
64 lbs each on stock 20" srt wheels w/ rsa's... that's all i got
I DRINK ROYAL PURPLE! WHAT NOW?!

As the tire rubber decreases, so does weight. This sight says the tire tread is 32.6% of the tire weight.
The contis weigh 31lbs, so the tread must weigh about 10lbs.
To lose 4lbs, the tread would have to be reduced/worn 40%.
I still have my used Conti's and they now weigh 51lbs.
I never do hardcore burnouts, just a lot of chirping and some tire squealing turns.
