Does anyone know the weight distribution of 1999 GT convertible? I know the curb weight is 3,375 pounds. I want to know the weight at each wheel. I want to buy some wheel dollies for the winter, and I want to buy the right weight capacity for the car. Any help would be great
99 coup is 57/43 which would be 1923.75/1451.25
or 962 a wheel up front and 726 a wheel in the back. + real life weight which should be like 25-50lb a wheel. Convertible would be a lil more back heavy.
The Convertibles run about 140 pounds more than coupes. Like CobraRed said, most of that additional weight is in the rear related to the convertible assembly and stiffening. Going off of those numbers, we could estimate your rear weight as 1600lbs, or 800 a tire. On average, 17" tires weigh about 25lbs each, so you're looking 825 per side in the rear, and 975-1000 including tires in the front.

i believe curb weight accounts for tire weight, so it'd be more like +2-5lbs a wheel over stock. I was more accounting for real life weight like battery, gas, spare tire and anything in trunk/cabin
Yeah, now thinking about it, you're right. I don't put my car on the curb anyhow. Good lord, please don't take that seriously. We all know I park my car in the driveway, jeez
