Don't you mean 5ZR Hypers?

Yeah, could be that the PS2's are lighter than S03's. Thats definitely a possibility.
|
Yes, the Michelin is roughly 2-3 pounds lighter in that size range. Although the 275 width is usually heavier than an equivalent 240 size in the same tire. It's kind of tough to make a straight comparison, but you can go to the tire weight charts and figure the wheels weights from there.
|
plus the difference in width of the wheel is going to make the comparison a little off also.
|
Yeah I wish i had all the same Width tires to compare but it gives everyone an idea of what they are..
|
This helps, though! I can probably get to within a pound by figuring out the tire weights from Tire Rack and adding 1/2-1 pound for 1/2" of rim width.
|
Plus, those are SMB, which I believe are chrome plated. My 19" Hypers are just regular silver finish. I'm sure that saves a couple pounds.
|
not all tires weight the same, especially different sizes.
It's still a good indication anyway, here is my contribution :) BBS RGR 18x9.5 with 265/40-18 BFG KDW - 44.5 lbs |

Thats what everyone thinks but they are not. I was told that it is that new spray paint stuff that you can spray on anything to make it look chrome with out the weight. I heard that 5zigen applys it with a lazer and makes the chrome look black. Again, this is what I heard, so don't know how much of that is true. But they aren't plated I know that, theyd weigh much more.
