I have few things to share regarding wheels and tires. I've notice that they can vary in weight quite a bit. For example

Ofna star rim: 42g
Ofna trulite rim: 35g

Proline Moab tires w/ molded insert: 90g
Ofna treaded onroad tire w/ belt: 66g
Panther soft slick tire w/ soft foam: 50g

Hotlaps autocross mounted on unknown rims: 125g
Losi pins mounted on losi rims: 115g


Check out my custom converted 8ight:
