Weight of OEM rim for 6th Gen 4R TRD PRO?

[mcd_ovrlnd]

Anybody know the weight? I am trying to compare net net weight differences on new tires and possibly new rims. Want to compare to my OEM setup. AI google search says 34-37 pounds. Found some threads on other sites that say 28.75.

Sorry in advance, this is not a definitive answer. I bought the Pro wheels to put on my Off Road and moved them a few times before getting them installed. There's no way they are 34+ lbs, just based on how easily I was able to handle them. if I had to guess I'd estimate they're 25–27 lbs each.

Maybe someone who's yet to install them can weigh them for the community. I'd like to know definitively as well.

TRD PRO Wheel is about 30#

Turns out I did weigh the tire plus wheel combo. I don't claim this is a particularly accurate weight measurement - its on a Garmin bathroom scale. The tire just fits and balances. this is TRD Pro wheels with Toyo 285/70/18 E-load tires. They are specified to be 57# by Toyo. This would make the wheel 40# (less the weight of the air??) - which seems high but you make the call on my measurement technique. (CORRECTION: I ORDERED 285/70 BUT RECEIVED 285/75 - SPECED BY TOYO AT 67#. THIS MAKES MORE SENSE: WHEELS ARE ~30#)
For comparison, the TRD Flat Black option wheel measured at 28#. Its 8" vs 8.5" width of the TRD Pro wheel.

Note that I've switched the Toyo 285/70 tires to these wheels because I was getting rear wheel rub on fenders off-road and the change in offset (+45 vs +20) made the difference. It also eliminated the very slight front tire rub on the felt & air dam screw tab. Bottom line: For TRD Off-road there is no question in my mind that the closer to stock offset is better choice for fitting larger tires. (I've seen folks suggest that less offset is better but my data says they are wrong.)
And, although I don't trust my measurement technique, it would appear/seem that the TRD Pro wheels are heavier than the TRD Flat Black option wheels - consistent with the slightly smaller width.

Thanks for this. Found another guy on this thread who said he weighed them at had 28.75. So sounds like 28.75-30 roughly.
