Weight savings by changing wheels
How much weight (rolling mass) did you save by changing to custom wheels...example: stock ralley wheels 15" vs. TTII's 15"... I was told there is about an 8lb. savings per wheel.....

Sounds possible. My 16" TTII's weigh 17lb....no tire. My old steel wire wheels with tire weighed 47lb!
I've got the same wheels. When I first got them, I opened the box to pull a wheel out and just about threw it across the garage it was so light!!
