Default RE: Big Joe 40 Series

OK - I did not read all, but some of the posts here.

Down at Maxbashing - they put on the Big Joe 40 Series because they weigh less than the stock TMaxx wheels and tires. Now I see people saying they weigh more. I never had them myself.

I know they are bigger. But bigger does not always mean more weight. They have a lower profile from how they look. Does anyone have the actual weight of the tires? In issue 2 of MaxBashing magazine they have a whole article where they are reducing the weight of a TMaxx 2.5 for better track performance and they recommend the Big Joes because they give the truck a wider stance to help better handling, and reduces over all weight of the truck.

I want to know how heavy are the Big Joes vs Savage stock wheels and rims and TMaxx stock wheels and rims.
