Default Randoms Weights (clutch, tires)

So when I put my new clutch/flywheel in I weighed the old stuff and the new. The old PP/clutch/flywheels weighed in around 28lbs. The new stuff weighed @ 22.5. This was a ACT HDSS w/the prolite flywheel. The used disc was almost 2lbs lighter than the new one because it was pretty gone.
I recently also got new Azenis mounted, and The new tires weighed in at a hefty 24lbs(around). I kept one of the bald tires and it was under 19lbs. I was pretty surprised that that much rubber comes off these things. On four bald tires you lose about 20lbs. Not bad
The bald tire is now swinging from a tree with my friends pit attached to it...Funny ****

Were your old tires azenis too? I dont see how you can lose 5lbs of tread, unless there was no tread left.

If the old tires were not azenis, than the weight difference is because azenis are notoriously heavy.

Thats what I was thinking, but Azenis get loud as hell when there bald. Especially when you have a *slight* camber problem ..

They look more like they were overinflated, as there's still some tread on each edge.

(-) camber does that... When you get to 80% then flip them... Left front to the right front and so on... we do it all the time on auto x tires..
