No, but maybe we could get people to post the weight of their wheel/tire combo. My FRPP Mach 1 style 17x8 wheels with P245-45 BF Goodrich G-force tires weigh 52.3 lbs each. I haven't weighed the rears yet (17x9 Mach 1 knock offs w/ P275-40s).
I'm curious to know how much weight I added to the original set up of 14x7(?) steel wheels with E70-14s. It shouldn't be much since the originals were steel. Also, how does this compare to some of the more popular after market choices like 15x8 TDs, or the bullit wheels you mentioned.

well i can tell you my e'brock 454's weigh more than my stock 14x7 GT wheels, how much i can't say since i haven't weighed them but they are most definitly heavier. one bare 454 with no tire weighs about as much one of my old 15X8 Riken mesh wheels with a 235/60-15 radial T/A mounted.
i'm glad i decided to keep the Riken wheels and use them on the cougar, the weight difference alone is worth it to me and since i don't plan on ever using anything larger than a 12" rotor i have no need for larger wheels on the cougar.
