Not sure about the wheel and tyre but MiniSpares catalogue shows calliper weights where theyre advertising their alloy ones.
I seriously doubt it! |

Comparing MBs with the sort of 13" wheel you buy from MWS / Huddersfield is like comparing Concord with what the wright bros flew!!!!

I've weighed the sportspack wheels and they were over 15kg. Ok, so a wheel is 15kg, and a tyre is 14kg, so the overall sportspack wheel/tyre is 29kg? Or did you mean to say: 13" sportspack with tyre approx 14kgs 10" MB with tyre 7,5kgs On 17th Nov, 2014 Tom Fenton said:

It is a bit of a funny one - I guess you should define a 'wheel' as an assembly consisiting of a tyre and a rim.

I was wrong when I wrote that a 13" tyre was 14kg. What I meant was "wheel" :) On 13th Jul, 2012 Ben H said:

Vegard, you may have technically made a mistake BUT your from Norway and i assume english is not your native language. as such we can count that one as lost in translation. |

does anyone know the weight of a standerd 12" wheel with tyer? Not much help but I'm pretty sure the Rover 12" alloys weighed more than the 12" steal rims, IIRC some of the Might Minis are now running steal rims to save weight. Isambard Kingdom Brunel said:
