I must say i was pretty happy to find out that members actually knew the weight of their wheel/tyres !!

Heres mine -

Tyre Make/Model - Michelin MXF sport
Tyre Size - 185/ R14
Wheel Make/Model - Most commonly known as the BSA 282
Wheel Type (Alloy, Steel etc) - Alluminium Alloy
Wheel Width - 5.5 "
Combined weight of each tyre/wheel - ~13 Kgs

And for the stepnee (as a comparison) -
Tyre Make/Model - Bridgestone S322 or S328 or something...either way they are all made of stone.
Tyre Size - 175/ R13
Wheel Make/Model - Pressed steel wheel (without the plastic wheelcover)
Wheel Type (Alloy, Steel etc) - Steel
Wheel Width - 5" ?
Combined weight of each tyre/wheel - ~15.5Kgs

The wheel/tyres were weighed when they were inflated to about 32psi.
Also, might be worth mentioning that 80% of my tread on the MXFs is missing
