Anyone know the difference in weight between the 3rd Gen aluminum and 3rd Gen steel wheels?

 

I should learn to read things closer.... Off to research

pound to pound and a half.....

 

aluminums are lighter, thats all i know

 

on and a half pounds? thats it?

 

Thats what I found.... The steel wheel can be thinner because of the strength but the aluminum has to be thicker/bulkier to get the weight rating out of it... Look at the spokes for an example steel is like 1/4" thick while the aluminum is around an 1 1/2" thick so more material.

 

The aluminum ones are an inch wider than the steel rims too. They are 8" while the steels are 7". I found this out when I took the steel rims off of my truck.

 

So the aluminums have more of a chance to rub or is there offeset that much different?

 

rub on what ?

 

Sorry I guess I should clarify that im putting them on a 2nd gen.

 

What size tires are you planning to run?
