I asked TMX how much the Method DS weigh and they tell me 32 pounds while others say they weigh 27 pounds. Who is right?

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

I just put a set on my truck and weighed them.. It was 27 lbs! Maybe they are going off shipping weight.

I bought these because of the weight (24.5lbs), mated them up to some MTRS and have been beating the crap out of them since (well not really, but a bit of mud and trail time)

Anyone rocking the forged Methods? The real bead locking ones?

Anybody know what the regular standard methods weigh vs. the double standard.

I really don't understand the weights claimed here for the OEM Raptor wheels. I just bought new wheels returning to OEM. Ford Motor Company even claims each wheel weighs 27 pounds. Upon receipt of the wheels, I weighed the wheels on a very accurate shipping scale. The wheel weighs 36.5 pounds. I believe you cannot trust anyone's weight claim on wheels. They all want a sale and will claim anything just to get the wheels sold.
