Would that be me?

Interestingly enough, I just upsized the wheels on my Formula from 16" to 17". I weighed a stock 16" alloy with tire and it was 46 lbs. I weighed a 17" (similar 5 spoke alloy design) and it was 42 lbs. I found a source online that states that the 16's weigh 19.5 lbs, the 17's 20.5. That would make the tires 5 lbs (!) lighter. For what it's worth.

BDC, less talk more timeslip! And btw, you will not be getting a jump on me from a dig, I'm running drag radials.
