Good question for a change. Didn't have the foresight to weigh them brand new, unmounted. But mounting my Billboards, the fronts are 35 total and the rears 41 total. My old TD's were 36 and 43.

Dunlop Qualifiers were about 10-12 pounds heavier.

YOU GUYS!!!
This is not the same magnesium that goes in your Centrum Senior vitamins.
We're talking about a magnesium alloy, which is more than likely an aerospace grade.
Geez.
At any rate, the price will be the price. We will decide with our pocket books.

Uh-huh... I'll take that as a thinly veiled capitulation. I win. ERA Chas also loses because he aligned himself, ever so slightly, on your side of the debate.

Patrickt, you are achieving a new low on this thread, as this is the first time I have ever seen any member on any car forum single-handedly try to kill a group purchase. You are evil, dude, simply evil, and I hope that Rodney and the rest are hugely successful with this process. I don't need to have a dog in this show to at least wish them success on something that a lot of parties have shown interest in (and probably many that don't post on CC). Go unzip your car cocoon and take the bitterness meter down a couple notches, would ya?!?

You have no idea... but thank you for the compliment.
