steel rims + 22,20" tires to aluminum rims + 20,18" tires
Approximately how much weight would be saved by going from 10" or 11" steel rims in the front with 22x11-7 tires to 10" aluminum with 18x6-10 tires?
How much weight would be saved in the rear by going from 9" steel rims with 20x11-9 rims to 8" aluminum rims with 18x10-8 tires?
all tires are 4 ply. The aluminum rims are spun aluminum.
Would 10lbs in the front and 12lbs in the back be reasonable? (I think the back would lose a bit more due to a MUCH wider rim.)

steel rims + 22,20
oh, come on! nobody knows what kind of weight savings i can expect?
What do you people think? 5lbs? 10lbs, 15lbs, 20lbs, 25lbs, 30lbs?
The kymco mongoose 250 is almost the exact same machine except that it has aluminum rims already and it weights over 30lbs less. Can I expect to loose about 30lbs?
