My replacement front right tire arrived yesterday from Tirerack. I called them on Friday b/c the dealer couldn't force balance the tire and it was reading 39 lbs. Pretty quick turnaround. I'm just waiting to see when they process my credit for the wheel balancing. Great customer service!

I hope to get the new tire on later this week.

I have had nothing but good experiences when dealing with Tirerack... two sets of rims/snowtires and set of performance tires. :thumbup:

Throw that tire on an accurate scale so we can find out the true weight of it

I bought this one from Staples . . . used it and will now return it :bigpimp:

yeah it's a terrible thing isn't it ;) ;) . . . but at least we all know the official tire & wheel weights for a few different brands

(not sure if I posted them here but I did on E46fanatics) :D

Alan, I'll have to check this out. The tire won't be mounted until later this week so I have some time.

235/40 R18 - S03's : Weight = ??? lbs.

Oh, and Alan returning things, who would've figured. :rolleyes: :bustingup :p
