Default EMX Super 7 Weight

Does anyone have a rough idea of the weight of a EMX super 7? Just curious if they're a heavy wheel or not.

Aren't the stock wheels 19 pounds? 3 more pounds per wheel, plus larger heavier tires, would be a fairly significant difference.

The stock 17s are somewhere between 22-24 lbs, not sure of the exact some people say different but they are defiantly not below 20.

I would think that having a bigger rim it would use a lower profile tire which would weight less than a normal profile tire....more rubber...
But I put my super7 rim on a bathroom scale it said 22...it could be wrong don't know how accurate it is.
But if they both weigh the same then I say the 17would be heavier with the bigger tires.

I have some 18" EMX Super 7's that I recently took off my xD and replaced them with Axis Decades that are just sitting in boxes in my garage...Tomorrow I will pull one out and weigh it for you and take a pic of it on the scale for proof...

The EMX Super 7's might be for sale soon without tires...Here's what they looked like on my xD:





Here's before I put them on:

As promised I just weighed them on my digital scale...I made sure to take off all the balancing weights prior to weighing it...My scale is pretty accurate...The Enkei Super 7's weigh in at 20.6 pounds...Not bad for an 18" rim...

Here is a pic:

thanks. good clean measurement. can you do the same with the stock rim ?

if you do a search for Scion Tc OEM rim, you will not find many sites that
provide the weight of the rim.

But one of the few that do states that a single OEM rim weighs 30 pounds.
