Default Weight of your wheels and tires?

I took my stock rims (16x7) and 265/70-16 off of my tahoe and put my 22x9.5 with 305/40-22 on.. I just wanted to see the difference between the two. 22's weighed 90.6lbs and stockers weighed 55.5lbs!@!! 35lbs is a lot of weight on each wheel. Needless to say with a heavy Tahoe,4.8, and 3.23 gears this thing is pretty slow. I just got my tune from Nelson today, so I will see if it made any performance difference.

Wow! Not set up for speed at all!

What were the stockers? Steel? My stock 8 lug steels with tires were about 55lbs.

Bigger pics with the new wheels?
