blue carbon did you ever find out the stock rim weight? I as well would like a nice l/w wheel, less rotational mass!!!!!! would any one rec a good l/w wheel BTW. let me know gang!

the stock wheels are about 27lbs each no tires is the conclusion we all have came too no one has weighed a stock wheel with no tire to confirm exactly.. but figure that weight..

Thanks Bluecarbonfiber for this helpful post, now I am sure the new tires on the OEM wheels will fit without any issue. I need a bigger sidewall for cobblestone paved streets and some dirt roads around.

the 19 inch aspec wheel is 29lbs ( https://acurazine.com/forums/tires-w...weight-866087/ )im guessing the chrome version is 2lbs more in the 19s

the 18s will be 2 lbs lighter in most instances of wheels which is why we came to conclusion of 27lbs if anyone was curious on how the numbers came about.. if anyone is bored and has access to a scale and just a wheel i would love to know the weight amounts of a 2007 vs a 2010 wheel since they are different looking.. my guess the 2007 wheels weigh a smidge more due to more face to them

I will replace tires in a week or so, found a good price on 245/60 Cooper ones, and despite the wear indicators are not showing yet on the current Michelins, my brother hit a huge pothole and damaged the sidewall of a front one, it developed a nasty "hernia", so next monday will be in Guadalajara and will get them if there is a weight scale available I will weight a wheel without a tire, I promise.

that would be awesome!! what year is rims? be nice to have solid numbers between the style of rims

2007 OEM 18" wheels; today I drove 200 Hwy miles, the bump on the right front Michelin got bigger, at 80, a barely noticeable vibration was felt, so no doubt I need to replace this tire at least, but the whole set are about to show the wear markers within a few months, so I will go for the full set in a bigger size.

A couple of days ago I ordered the tires, the seller shipped them yesterday, from som 90 mi away, went to the nearby Walmart, the moment I parked the SUV, a puffff! noise was heard, the right front tire ripped the bump, so I used for the first time ever the imitation of tire Acura provides with the cars, today esrly in the morning the tires arrived, went to a tire dealer/shop, they mounted, balanced and performed a four wheel alignment.
Sorry but no weight scale available, so the weight is still unknown, sorry!
The new tires runs smoother due the larger sidewall.

bluecarbonfiber

well atleast your issues was taken care of.. would of sucked if you were on a trip and that happened

Motomano

Yes, new tires give me confidence, and a noticeable plusher ride over potholes, cracked pavement and speed bumps so common around, not to mention when Driving off road.
I do have another related issue, which maybe will need a post in technical forum: the spare tire had low pressure, so after installing it, got out of the parking lot, heading to a gas station a few yards away, making a U turn for, of sudden all kind of warnings showed, ABS, VSA, SH-AWD... Tire got inflated to 60 psi, heading home, warnings went off... I guess it was because of the diameter difference from the low pressure spare tire, so what will happen if I ever use the spare with bigger tires? Any idea if damage would happen?
Not the right forum I know.
