Does anyone know how much the factory wheels weigh in at? Rims and Tires.

I remember someone mentioned it once in a new wheel thread, but i can't find it....boo

To me, the 17" stock wheel plus tire feels about 45 pounds or so. That's just my guess based on lifting the wheel and it's comparison to some of the weights at my gym...

That will give me a starting point until someone knows the exact. I am not sure how much the rims i would like to buy weigh but the tires i am getting for them are roughly 25 - 26 lbs each. I would like to not jump to high per wheel. Alot of stress on individual parts then. I have a 1999 Tahoe that went from the factory 16's to 23's and the weight difference is amazing. I have had to replace things like the hub assy because of the pure stress on the parts since the weight is nearly twice. thanks for any help you guys can provide.

My steel wheels, hubs, and tires weighed about 45 lbs.
