R2 wheel weights (lbs) ?

[nez]

Does anyone know the weights of the various R2 wheels (without tires)? They would be valuable to know for aftermarket wheel purchases.

Thanks, Mike

Gear Shop has tire and wheel weights. You might be able to find tire weights at tirerack or pages of each tire manufacturer.

Would be nice to know just how much weight can be saved per wheel with say Martian Wheels. On my Model 3P it was significant.

From the Gear Shop, Tires/Wheels together:

21's are 62lbs, 20's are 64lbs.
RivianTrackr has the tire specs. But I think the weight might be wrong on the AT's?
The Pirelli's are listed at 32lbs - the AT's are listed at a whopping 46lbs, 44% more than the Pirelli's. However, the BF's on TireRack (not exactly the OEM's) are listed at 35lbs.
Using the spec at RT would make the 21" wheels ~30lbs... but the 20" wheels only 18lbs?? With the TireRack weight, it'd make the 20" wheels ~ 29lbs.

are there even any reasonable aftermarket wheels out for the R2 yet?

Depends on your definition of “reasonable”. Method MR707 fits (member Dark-fx is running a set, look for his thread regarding tpms sensors and tire swap). Atomic Wheels (forum sponsor) has one or more, can also make any design you want via custom order. EV Sportline has a few.

30 and 29 sounds right

"not $ROFL$ for wheels I will abuse in salty winters" is generally my metric. cheap and sturdy, weight and aesthetics be damned. hell, if bassetts came in a 20" flavor...

Don't know if they are any good, but someone mentioned these in another post:

Slick, okay. Options are arriving. Hopefully more continue to arrive and get tested by the time my order comes up!

It’s a mass market car. There will be more option and soon. It’s also a much more common bolt pattern than R1. That means wheel manufacturers/brands will have easier time adapting any of their existing designs for the pattern—all that remains is adjusting for offset and brake clearance.

Aren’t the ATs 36 lbs?
