how much the work truck 17s weigh?

not the slt steelies, i'm talking about the ones that look like spares, lol.

i can pick 4 of em up for free...just wondering if they'd be a good choice for track rims

If i remember correctly they weigh in the 32-36 lbs range. I could be wrong though. If they are free i would get them beats the hell out of running 20's regardless of the weight

Jordan you can have my chrome 17's. 2 dont have any tires on the but 2 already have skinnies on them. Just take them. I'm tired of them laying around. They are 8" wide I think. I have had my 295/45 mt's on them & I know they work, I just switched to aluminum durango wheels b/c they are lighter & I got them really cheap from Joel

They only tires I have is a set of 275/60 goodyear eagle gt 2's that been laying in the backyard for 3 or so years. I doubt they're any good

I would sell them but I dont feel like dealing w/ shipping, etc. Brian was using them for a while but he sold Ryan his dr's so he doesnt need them anymore

exactly, i'll deal with it for you :D

bet i could sell them locally

actually, what i may do is get those steelies from the other guy and see which rims are lighter and stick with the lighter ones. if the steelies are lighter i'll help you sell your old rims and if yours are lighter, i'll take those and sell the steelies.
