Based on the website below they weigh 39# each. I have no idea if that is heavy or light for that size, just putting that info out there. It is not always easy to find weights since the mfg website rarely lists it

They aren't that heavy. I am looking for the stats my buddy got while running them.

Pat check out Graeme's build thread. Post 124 shows you the offset

That sounds really light to me. How did you get 25 lbs, did you weigh them yourself, or go off the website?

17 x 9 = "31 lbs"
18 x 10 = "39 lbs"

I don't believe that going from 17 x 9 to a 18 x 10, is only .6 lbs heavier.

If you follow his link to Graeme's build, Graeme weighs them and they come out to 25# each. Probably more accurate than that website i found the info on

Of course I read that, but this is what it says:

These puppies weigh in at only 25 lbs a piece, and they are dirt cheap!

Neither quote specifically says that he personally weighed them. He could have even got that number off the shipping label. Its lighter than what both websites say it is.
