Honestly, I don't remember, but I think they are about 54lbs front and 57 rear with tires, but I'm not sure about it. Ask member craigm1841 - he might know, or search - someone had this info up, for sure

according to: http://felgenkatalog.auto-treff.com/ it is 11,2 front and 11,3kg rear + tyre (I would say close to the same numbers, they are very heavy rtfs-no one likes to use them around here)

a front 245x40x18 rft = 13.2 kg wheel 11.2kg

so 54lbs for front as v_therussian says is about right.

oh, like you didn't know it

actually, considering my unlucky streak of crappy recommendations and bad product recognition lately, I might have to take my ass back to school...

Hmmm. I don't think that school is necessary because life has done the schooling here.
