Default Factory rims weight

Hello

I'm sure someone out there knows exactly how much the factory rims on a 2012 2 door sport s weigh?

Just trying to figure out the weight difference when I finally get some aftermarket rims...

I wondered the same as measured after I did new wheels and tires.

The Bridgestone 18" AT tires on the Sahara are 44lbs, the 18" wheel 27lbs...so 72 lbs. The rubicon 17" and wheels came in around 75 lbs total.

It's important to take weight into account when shopping for new wheels and tires. I also like the fact my rugged ridge are also hub centric.
