Ok, so I decided to put the big Cen wheels/tires on my savage with the RCM tranny forward chassis. I took some pics with other tires, and weighed each one so that we have some sort of comparison.
Stock HPI wheel/tire combo from a savage ss kit (billed as lightweight): 214.6 grams
Maximizer beadlock wheel, with proline bowtie tire: 297.8 grams
40 series spoke wheel with road rage tire: 292.7 grams
Cen Nemesis white dish wheel with "bowtie" tread tire: 434.1 grams
So the Cen setup is twice as heavy as the stock hpi stuff! Nice to see that the hpi combo is considerably lighter than the others in the same size. Might be a good reace combo? or a least a lightweight tire.
Now for the pics:
