I think the spare only takes like 35-40 lbs of air?

sorry bro, just busting chops. This video suggests you have 1200HP if you run 4 spares

Oh it's cool I was just thinking that they might be a good, light weight, front wheel drag setup. But thanks for your contribution.

Honestly wasn't trying to be an ***, just thought it was a weird request. Guess you don't have a spare.

Just went out and pulled mine, bathroom scale, 33# bro. Hope that helps

The reason I ask is because GTO guys get two spares and run them as skinnies for drag racing and weight savings. At 33lbs that's just too much weight for us. I think our stockers are lighter than that.

Thanks for you help bro!
