Update!!!!

I just got new wheels for my drag slicks, weighing in @ 15 pounds a piece I'm saving +/- 20 pounds of rotating mass on the wheels alone, not to mention the weight saving on the tire itself.

Gotta get ARP Wheel Studs and spacers though...

7"

I'll get the actual weight of the combo to be able to compare it with the stock wheel/tire combo.

To be honest i'm not a huge fan of the wheel design but i totally understand that they are there for a purpose so if they are light and can easily fit those MT slicks than i'm ok with that

Care to share the brand of wheel?

I haven't raced it with these tires so I can't comment on that yet.
