No, i may have been a bit vague when I said "I have had my CR (delete model) weighed..."

I have the Gendron 1.375" hollow bar from smallfortuneracing.com. It weighs about 18lbs. This car is tuned for auto-x.

Does anyone have the 4 corner weights of a AC/Radio CR all stock?

Been rushing a shock job and didn't have time for the before measurement.

I'm surprised to hear you guys are seeing that much difference between scales. I have yet to see a variance of more than +/- 2 lbs on each pad, and I have tested plenty of them.

dunno, could be out of adjustment or something. Not sure how they work, but I have seen over a 100lb variance on the portable scales vs. the others.

Im not sure how much an OEM CR bar weighs .. 5 or 6lbs?

When you guys changed your tires out, did you guys opt for the 225/45/17 tire up front or did you guys maintain the 215/45/17 up front on the stock 17x7 wheels?

I went wih a 235/40 on the front. I would probably recommend a 225 or 215 for a street only car.

Thanks. Ideally I want to run non-staggered (255/40/17) without rolling the fenders.

I'm planning on running 255/40/17 with a big front sway bar (SCCA STR legal). I'm looking at the 6ULR's 949 racing will be coming out with.
