Some nice ass rims! Are they expensive?

Did some more wheel and tire math/research as well. Found a few more places listing the ltz20s as 45lbs each! The current Nitto 420s are also 44.1lbs so the current setup is 89.1lbs. The new possible combo is 30lbs for the 22" cosmos and 41.74lbs for Nitto 420v in essentially the same exact size tire 285/45/22


89.1lbs - 71.74 = 17.36lbs per corner of rotating mass! I can't believe going to dub deuces could make it faster lol. That's over 20% reduction in weight.

That's it, boy. Keep talking nerdy to me.

I plead the 5th

Uhm, in 2006 there was more F series Ford trucks in the world than Australians.

Uhg got a flat omw to a doc appointment. Must have picked up a nail and then lost it omw to work this morning because it was flat when I got in to leave. Luckily its center of the tire so I'm at discount tire waiting for the repair now.

Maybe I need runs flats

Actually I guess this wheel tire combo sucks and I need to get a set of 22" Cosmis wheels and the new Nitto 420Vs.
Just gotta decide between all silver or black with silver lips.

More maths for you, The 17" Methods (25.2lbs) and load E 285/70/17 KO2s (58lbs) on my RCSB weigh 83.2lbs each (they are worn slap out as well). So I was right the LTZ20/420s combo is heavier than off-road load E 33s !!!!!! I knew my arms were calibrated but it seemed silly thinking such a shorter street combo would weigh more (5.9lbs more).

This really is surprising info that probably no one has ever bothered to consider. I never would've imagined the LTZs to be so heavy! But, I'm glad to have a surprisingly positive comparison for my homemade race wheels.

I was studying up last light on them XT-206rs and they're really close to the look I'm aiming for but are also functional with their light weight. I couldn't find any pics of them on a Tahoe or Yukon but they are all over trucks.

How about we go halfsies on a set of 2 and then we can take a bunch of different side shot pics on both my NBS and your NNBS. Post them all over the internet and see if the internet likes them then buy our own sets if they do. If they don't I suppose we just toss them in a lake or each get one as a spare


There was just a post about wheel weights on PTdotnet and nobody knew the weights of anything, it was a very useless thread of opinions and BS. I'd really like to get the Cosmis and see if my MPG goes up.

yea thats definitely the reason i want you to get them as well

 

[Dantheman1540]

MPG is the only logical reason to get anything.

How much dem dub dueces you got weigh?

 

[Dantheman1540]

I'll answer that for you, they weigh nothing!!!!!!! That's incredible especially for that price!

 

[Dantheman1540]

Actually, I just found somewhere else they weigh 39lbs which isn't bad compared to my 20"s

low 40s prob....they+tire feel lighter than the stocks on 275 55 20s

Whattaya think I'm made of money? I just blew a WHOLE HUNDRED DOLLARS on a 4L60 that looks like it came out of a lake.

Yeah, nobody gives a shit about that. With wheels, it's form over function. I generally avoid following popular trends, so I was a bit disheartened to find that I'm actually late to the XT-206R party. The saving grace is that they're not common on SUVs. Looking at the width and 0 offset, I'm now starting to wonder if that's because they stick out too far. It's easy to flare a truck bed, but you're not getting much out of an SUV rear quarter. I've already rolled my lips as much as I could and gained 1/2".

I think GM plates lead with cast aluminum.

I figured Jens movie career was going good and you could get some wheels.

I don't like following wheel trends either which is why OEMs are my typical go too. At least with OEMs you can say "oh I got them hella cheap local" and make it look like your not trying to hard lol.

I actually didn't even think about the offset, my rear is already significantly wider than stock. I hope you didn't just ruin this for me

LOL
I was told that GM (or whatever Chinese sweat shop that produces their wheels) relies on external support for wheel strength, such as the chromed plastic I recklessly removed from my GMC wheels. (BTW, Brent, I'z not ded yet.)

Oh, its going great! But, Brazzers takes such a HUGE cut of the proceeds that it's no more lucrative than being a cashier at Dollar General. BTW, thanks again for your recent subscription.

I get that. Doesn't matter to me, though. Outside of TYF, in the real world, I don't exist and nobody talks to me.

I've been known to break a few hearts. You'll thank me when you're older.

 

[Dantheman1540]

Well, that is kinda scary that they rely on plastic for support, guess that explains why one of mine is bent so badly.

Brazzers takes more than myonlyfans, need to get with the time's mane.

I personally just don't like seeing the same vehicle as me with the same after-market wheels, but for some reason OEMs are fine to me.

I have no heart, hence the heartless breakup last week.

Thats why I'm sad that you're dumping the LTZ and Chris is dumping the 22s. Clean looking shit I tell ya

I'm not dumping these until the 420s are Steve Harvey bald. Plus I'm not 100% sold on the Cosmis yet, I'd like to do more research on lighter wheels under $500 each. My powder coat buddy has stacks and stacks of wheels he just buys and sells so I might go dig through his stack one day and get them powdered. Problem is most are gawdy.

That’s why they’re in a stack instead of on a vehicle.
