Default Wheel weights......

Did anyone ever get the EXACT weight of the stock wheels? How about the stock wheel/tire combo? If I had a nickel for every "about" weight I'd be rich. If you have these weights, PLEASE post them. Lbs would be good also, or include the conversion please. Thanks...

I weighted them at 39.2 lbs front, 43.2 lbs rear.
This is with ~30% tread left on the S-02s, 34 psi.

My oem wheel/tire combo weighs F: 40 pounds; R: 43 pounds w/no tread basically (20.7miles).
On a side note, I just weighed my 16" Regamaster Evo wheel/tire combo at: F: 34 pounds w/BF-Goodrich KDW 215/50/16 & R: 39 pounds w/BF-Goodrich KDW 245/45/16 both w/32 psi.

Thanks guys, but does anyone know the weight of the wheels themselves? If we can get that, then we can get the tire weight from Tirerack and get an exact figure for future comparrison...

Just being anal .

Stock US (cast Enkei) wheels are 17.8/18.8 lbs. F/R
JDM (forged BBS) wheels are 13.2/14.2

All measured on a digital shipping scale. I imagine production tolerances could be as high as +- .1-.2 lbs.
