Default Need weight of 17 in stock rim

I am selling mine and trying to figure shipping before I complete the deal.

Anyone know the exact weight of the stock 17 in rim that comes with Potenza's (not including tire?)

Or if not, where I might be able to look?

Thanks all!

I used 30lb. for shipping purposes. It's only a few cents difference between 25lb. and 30lb. to ship anyway.

Get a personal FedEx account. I shipped 4 17" wheels for less than $100.

Ship them FedEx Ground. It takes 7 days, but they get there safely.

The shipment would be to Canada, does that change anything?

I don't think it will matter to Canada. I remember pricing shipping to or from Quebec to my location (west coast), and it wasn't much different. Maybe a dollar or two.

I'm assuming this is accurate:

18 inch diam, 8 inch wide, standards: 12.05 kg, 26.565 pounds.

Rays: front 8.25 kg, 18.188 pounds; rear 8.45 kg, 18.629 pounds.

17 inch: front 10.55 kg, 23.259 pounds; rear 10.95 kg, 24.140 pounds.

Default Thanks!

Thanks for the weight. I apreciate the info.

Linky no worky though. Heavy rims. That's 100 pouns of weight on the vehicle. I hope my new ones weigh less than that!
