Tyre weight

Postby nareshseep » July 27th, 2009, 1:59 pm

Looking to get some info on tyre weights for the following:

205/60/14

195/55/15

195/50/16

205/40/17


Do different brands of tyres have different weights?

Yes, different brands have different weights due to different compounds used! A variation by as much as 5lbs can be seen!
