well, the UPS santa stoped by last night. dropping off 1 heavy package. after further inspection...it was 2 boxes marked Crager. after cutting the packin straps, it was just 2 of the 4 rims. i guess they are shipping from a differant place. so i got them out to look at them and was surprised by the weight compared to a stock alloy rim. im hopein to get them on early next week and i'll take pictures when done.

They used adhesive weights on the inside, and its a ton of weight (I'll have to look to see how much). As of right now, they are sitting in the back of my X waiting for Saturday when I do the BL and PML. And figures too, that we get a huge snow storm last night and today, total of about 10-12" of snow on the ground all over. And I can't put my new tires on yet... ![[Crybaby]](graemlins/crybaby.gif)

The weight specs on my Cragars was for 2 wheels 55lbs. So I would assume that each wheel weighs about 26-27.5lbs.
I have a shovel, but didn't really need it at all.

Just noticed a lot of comments on all of the weights in a row...I was referring to the CONVOY of weights, in the pic...that many at a time....not the concept of a couple next to each other. My 305/70/16's AT ko's have like one weight per tire or so.

hey, when i test fitted my rims today on the back end..i noticed there was a larger gap around the bottom of the center hole then there was at the top. it didnt look like it fit right..like the hole was off center. is that normal with these w/o a tire on the rim? i bolted them down and it didnt move much. i guess we'll see when i get them mounted up thing week. i also too the time to use my dremal with a wire wheel and clean the rustyness off the axle cover and i painted them both gloss black. looks much better now. would it hurt anything it i sanded down and painted the drum black too?
