how much do your tires weight

does anyone have a link to a site that list the weight of tires

I was looking to buy some light weight tires for draging but some of the tire spec's do not include the weight

thanks forthe link but those tires are too small

I checked the company sites and some list it and some do not, I was just hoping that there was a website that list tires weights like the one for wheels

Too damn much.

Go for T1Rs if you want a light tire.

I don't have a table of weights in front of me but edgeracing has weights for plenty of different sized T1Rs. In general they are a few lbs lighter than most of the rest of the pack (with the Proxes 4 close on its tail but a little heavier) but there are a few outlier sizes.

Hankook RS2 Z212 in 235/45/17 are about 23-23.5lbs. My old pilot sports in 225/45/17 were 22.5lbs per tire.

Im happy my wheel tire combo is bigger, wider, IMO looks much nicer then my stock wheels and is still my stock wheel tire combo was 45.7lbs on my scale whereas my new wheel tire combo is a little over 38bs. 7.7LBS loss FTW! Just for those interested, being able to drop 7.7lbs per corner makes a HUGE difference in everything. My car accelerated so much faster, handled better, braking i cant tell you for sure but it felt about the same maybe slightly better. Right now im on my snow tire/stock rim combo which sucks they feel even heavier and snow tires suck in everything but dry launching and snow.
