2JDBurton>I do not own a company or drive a forklift, I'm a student,and I'm doing a vibration simulation of a forklift...if I could, I would weight it, but it's complicated....maybe I will be able to access the forklift next week, and then I will try to weight the wheels...

Not to be mean but honest, if you have a rim on the truck weigh it, if you are ordering one the seller should be able to provide a shipping weight for you.

Hi Leo

The rubber tire would be included in that weight. Are you able to contact the parts department with a request for a shipping weigt?

Ok, that weight it just for the rim or for the whole wheel (rim + tyre)?

Hi Leo

I have not worked on that Machine, but the best guess my survey came up with was around 70 pounds (31Kg) for the 10 inch rim and 100 pounds (45Kg) for the 15 inch rim.
your email will only come up if you replace the"." with dot, otherwise the email address is striped from your response.

Yes it helps a lot, and if you could help a litle bit more I would be grateful. Here are some info....the forklift is a internal cmobustion (diesel engine), tires are 10" - 6.50 width and 15" - 8.25 width...they are pneumatic tires. The forklift is the same as JCB TLT 30 Teletruk....does that help you? Could you give me some specific info now:)

Hi Leo

There are to many variables to give you what you are looking for. The width of the tire, the type of tire solid or pneumatic, if it is on an electric lift truck or on an internal combustion truck. Is the rim used as part of the brake system or part of the drive system.

in general a 10" (25mm) tire can weigh from 50lbs (22Kg) to 150lbs (67Kg)
a 15" (37+mm) rim can weigh from 75lb (33Kg) to 220lb (100Kg)

I hope this helps.
