Hey Peter. The Aluminum AM06 Series Black Machined Trailer Wheel item # AM58FV weighs 17 lbs.

What kind of trailer do you have and why are you focused on getting lightweight wheels?

Thanks Jerrod for the quick reply, I'm honestly shocked it's so light considering that a car wheel that same size Steel trailer wheels weigh 15+ pounds. I'm building a very lightweight enclosed cargo trailer and the more weight I save on construction, the more cargo capacity I have while still remaining under my vehicle's 2000lb limitation.

@Peter I was too when I got your response so I went downstairs and weighed one myself. Now the item # AM58FV was wrapped in foam but I put it on one of our shipping scales and it weighs 17.3 lbs. There's not 11 lbs of foam on it or anywhere near close so that 6 lbs weight I initially gave you is way off. Sorry for the confusion, something was wrong in our system with the wheel weights. The actual weight of the Aluminum AM06 Series Black Machined Trailer Wheel item # AM58FV is 17 lbs.
