Wagon Wheel Weight

I searched the forum but couldn't find an exact answer.

Can anyone tell me how much the OEM fat baztids weigh?

Rear 18's
Front 17's

Thanks and good day!

Not sure, but just about right for a small anchor.

Check the sticky at the top of the page.

19.2 lbs, front; 21.4 lbs, rear --- 97-99 OEM wagon sounds about right. I thought that they were even lighter than that. The other seems too heavy for a stock GM wheel. I always heard that the wagons were very lightweight. Maybe the heavier wheels are aftermarket.

I have a set stored in boxes. When I get a chance I will weigh them.
