Does a lighter wheel always mean a better wheel? Not necessarily. And if you’re comparing wheel weights, you need to make sure you’re comparing apples to apples.
A 15-inch wheel and a 17-inch wheel aren’t a fair comparison. Even wheels with the same diameter can differ in weight based on width, construction, design, and other specifications.
In this episode, we explain why matching wheel size and specs matters when comparing weights, and why the number on the scale doesn’t tell the whole story.
