weight of wheels
Has anyone weighed the stock steel and stock cast aluminum wheels for 2500/3500 Rams? I suspect there's no significant weight savings but I'm curious. On my previous 04 Hemi, I know the 20" wheel/tire was 86 lbs!, considerably more than the stock 17" steel wheel/tire.
I did, I can't find the exact weights, they are here somewhere in a file. But the stock Aluminum Alloy wheels weighed about 26lbs each, the stock Chrome Clad Steel wheels weighed about 41lbs each. About 15lbs difference. My BFG 315s mounted on stock Chrome Clad Steel wheels weigh about 107-108lbs each. I have a matching spare so I have around 540lbs of tires and wheels.
Not sure about the stock wheels/tires, but when I changed from the steel chrome wheels and BFG 315s (almost bald) to stock alloys with BFG 315s (new) the steelies weighed in at 100lbs each, while the alloys were down to 90lbs each.
