Rockcrawler weight?

Can anyone tell me what the rockcrawlers weigh? I'm getting either those or this http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/15x10...QQcmdZViewItem If the aluminum wheels are a lot lighter im going with those to keep the weight down. Thanks for any help.

i think once you put the tires on them its not going to be too dramatic of a differance. IMO. i could be wrong though. what size tire are you going to mount on them?

I havnt decided yet on the tires, either 31x10.5 or 32x11.5. The ones on ebay weigh 21lbs by the way.

Rock Crawlers are heavy. My spares are mounted on rock crawlers and my wheels on the truck are alloy, the crawlers are at least 15-20lbs more.

I thought so too. I have almost made up my mind on those over the rockcrawlers. I love the matte finish. Even though they are a couple hundred more they are better looking (IMO) and lighter.

I honestly can't feel the difference with mine. My spare is a rockcrawler but with my 35's they are just freaking heavy in the first place.
