I have some 15 inch rims from a 84 (i think) suburban 4x4 that are really light weight i have a set of used slicks on them now i used for mockup to see what size slick i wanted to go with. Ill try to remember to weight them.

Here is what they look like.

i always buy some 16x10 eagles, they work really good on the hoosier slick, but they do stick out, next season im going to try some 16x8 so they can tuck in and hope it still hooks as good... the eagles 101 or 102 only weigh like 24lbs/each....

I think the eagles 16x8's have a different backspacing then the 16x10's and wont tuck. That's why I went with the 16x8 centerlines on 5" backspacing and the only reason they tuck is cause I rolled the rear fender lips. Downside to been this low and running 16x8's is sucky traction on 100 shot, hell my 60's were 1.72 to 1.74 on the shot, I get better 60's on motor.
