10 HOLES OR PONYS ? LIGHTER ?

5ohCOUPE · 11-08-2001, 04:29 PM

My friend asked me if the ponys are lighter than the 10 holes. I said "that is a good question". Which is the lighter rim? I think the ponys are.

My guess would be the pony's as well, as the look like they have less metal. BUT, they are larger....get out your bathroom scale. if you don't have a scale, you're only trying to find the difference so you could make a simple balance.

if you are ganna run slicks then use the 10 holes...15" tires crumple betta than 16"

The Ponys are quite a bit lighter. I've had both and noticed the difference right away. I'd say the Pony wheel is at least 5lbs lighter than the 10 hole.
