Lightest road tire rim combo opinion

[nogm4me]

What is the lightest tire rim combo for the street? Been looking around, but makes my head spin. Thanks

The stock wheels are pretty light, gonna be hard to save much weight without buying some big $$ forged aluminum wheels

I know the 17 inch methods save about 4-5 lbs per wheel.

There are even lighter wheels.

My opinion is that the BFG tires are the lightest quality tire in the market.

I haven't seen one weigh less. The stock tires weigh 68 lbs. I do like the other bfg all terrain tread compound. It is harder and chunks way less than the factory at's.

Methods are lighter than stock (and IMO look much better)

How did the Methods become so popular with the Raptor community?

How did the Methods become so popular with the Raptor community?

Because they specialize in offroad wheels?

They weigh a beefy 27lbs, stock wheels (2010-2011) 31lbs, (2012) 32lbs.

the 2 stickies at the top of this section should help, tire weights and aftermarket wheel weights...



methods and stock tires or duratracs are probably goin to be hard to beat
