4th gen Sawblade rim weight? Looked in FAQ's...
 

Just wondering if ayone knows the weight of the 4th gen Sawblade wheel.
I couldn't find it in the FAQ's. Apologies if I missed it.

Do not let people tell you it weighs 16.5lbs. It DOES NOT. It weighs 19+lbs. How do I know? My friend wieghed the wheel on a digital scale, if I recall correctly it measures all the way to the gram.

19.80 each without tires

Just wondering, since I'm still running the 15" sawblades and have no intentions of changing: is that a heavy, light or in-between weight?

That is somewhat heavy for a 15-inch wheel, but they are MAD strong and the roads we have up here require strong wheels. Methinks they look good when lowered. Just get lighter front wheels with slicks/radials for the track only.

OEM wheels are typically stronger since they have to meet gov. standards. The can take the abuse of pot holes, etc.

thme some heavy 15" !!! mine are 16 lbs

What about the SE rims how much do they weight?

That's what we're talking about.

95\96SE = Sawblades
97-99GLE = Sawblades
97-99SE = 5 Spoke 16" wheels

Ok thanks. That's exactly why I asked -- I've never believed they were 16+ (which is the only answer I've been given up to now). I upgraded to the 4th gen sawblades about 3 months ago. Overall I'm happy with them compared to my stock 3rd gen sawblade style, both in looks and durability, but wouldn't mind shaving a few lbs off.
Maybe I should lay off the Twinkies.

hmm...thats the first time ive seen the sawblades on a 3rd gen...they look pretty good compared to the regular ones.

Thanks! Even a little better now since I closed the gap with some Eibachs. I'll have to update that Car Domain sig.
