Going to a 52lb tire, 11lb difference per tire, 44lb total for a loss of 14.5hp from stock.
Not a big deal in the whole scheme of things, but interesting to see.
Along those lines, anyone have any idea how heavy the 5 spoke rim is? Curious to know the difference between the stock rim and the wheels I put on. I didn’t think to weigh them a couple years ago when I made the change.

Going from memory only, 27lbs sticks out in my mind for the weight of the 17x7.5 5-star style wheel.
