26x10 46 pounds and the tire is 37 pounds. So it should be lighter then what I have now on it when mounted.

Went down to my buddys shop at ASP in daly city CA and we mounted the tires on. The 295 30 26 lexanis are taller than the 305 35 24 buy a bit.

We just mounted 1 tire and didnt have wheel weights in flat black so my buddy trevor gave me a batch said go at it. He knows I have OCD and the gloss black weights they had would bother me so ended up doing them all in flat black

Well mounted was 88.4 pounds i savings of almost 9 pounds off the 305 35 24.

The rear tires im not going to attempt to put on. Due to my truck being so low it sucks the rear end forward so im going to try to get to work tomorrow and weld on the autoride link to my upper rear spohn bars. I will be setting the top at 1/2 inch longer then stock and lowers at 3/4 inch longer then stock to give more negative pinion angle so better bite when I launch plus will keep pinion angle closer to 0. Only thing that sucks it will lift the truck up a little but i need to move them back.

wow thats ridiculous ! who in their right mind would put rims that heavy on their car...

actaully these wheels weight as much as the oem 22x9 with a 285 45 22

Damn that sucks bro. I been looking for a set to get powder coated silver.

 

I can text you pictures tomorrow and let me know if its worth it for you. You still have the same #? I probably won't buy another set of rims till after the holidays anyways.
