Andy, I can weigh some tires for you tonight. But I remember there being
~2lb difference for a dead vs. new Hoosier. Also I seem to remember that
roadracers were also ~2lbs heavier than autocrossers. These weights
measured from a 275/40/17. I can double check most of this tonight, but I
don't have any new roadracers right now.

Subject: Hoosier tire weight
Anyone ever weigh a worn (10-25% tread left) Hoosier radial (preferably
17"size) vs. a brand new one and figure the difference, if any? Also,
anyone
ever compare a same size R3S03 to an A3S03 in weight? I assume they were
the
same?
I mounted up some new tires on some new wheels before weighing tires/wheels
separately, and only have another set of wheels with worn tires to compare
to.
TIA,
Andy McKee
