Average weight of 22's with tire?

that's pretty hard to answer because there are pretty big differences between a cheaper one piece cast wheel & a much more expensive 3 piece wheel. a 3 piece wheel tire combo can be around the same overall weight as the stock 20's or less, where a heavier cast wheel can be quite a bit heavier.

also when it comes to weight on a rotating assy, weight closer to the outer circumference of the wheel is much more detrimental to performance than weight closer to the center. a heavier cast wheel will not only be heavier, but the bulk of it's weight will be at the outer rim area of the wheel, where a 3 piece forged wheel will have the bulk of it's weight in the center section & have extremely light weight outer rim area, all equaling better performance at accelerating & decelerating the wheel assy.
 
Don't know about the 22, however I just replaced my 18 with 20 and I almost could not lift the damm thing unto the wheel studs.:laugh:
My age might have something to do with it however these are the heaviest wheel tire combination I have ever owned.
 
the 18's are not that much lighter than the 20's. think it feels heavier going on than coming off :laugh: overall the wheel/tire assy on the fx is pretty huge to begin with, hard to compare to an average car really...

also, I have a set of assanti's in 22" 3 piece, & there just 2lb's heavier than the stock 18" rim & there lighter than the factory 20's...
 
My 22s are also lighter than the stockers. The RSAs weighed alot too on the 20s. Didnt weigh them, but It was more than 2 lbs cuz I could feel the diff.
 
The 22" rims are 2 pounds heavier than the stock 18 s, but the tires will be lighter than the 18 s which are a huge amount of tire compared to a 22" tire, so overall they are lighter than even stock 18 s depending on tire used
