I just bought some new tires for my front z06 rims, with the stock goodyears they only weighed 40lbs, with the new Kumho's they weight 47 lbs!!!!! I can't believe 1 tire weighs so much damn more!!!!! You guys think its just cause 1 tire was worn and one was not? Or is the goodyear tire that much lighter normally? Maybe you really do get what you pay for lol.


If any of you guys have ever weighed any other tires and have found some light ones let me know.

Yeah, Ive always wanted to know which radials are the lightest. Being so far from the axle 7lbs is a huge difference in rotational weight.

I am also kinda wondering how much heavier my rear nittos are than the stock goodyears, I never weighed the rear tires but maybe I should....

I just weighed my back rims and they weigh 46 lbs lol, So my rear tires which are 18x10.5 and have Nitto drag radials on them are lighter than my front tires which are 17x9.5 and have the Kumho's on them. I may go back to the tire shop and see if they have my old tires lol.

Kumhos are the shittiest damn tires. I hate the fact that people spend money on them. Kumhos are the Futura tire in Japan, they suck... They ride very harsh, and they are very loud. I'd rather spend the money on Goodyears at the very least.

That was a quality burnout vid by BTW

**** I may have to put these kumhos on the back and make a few more vids lol, I hate these POS tires!!!
