I was watching MECUM a few days ago and one of the hosts commented that the car on the block had the heaviest wheels of any production car. I don't remember what it was, but I wonder if it were true. To eliminate the obvious answers, no trucks or SUVs.

AMG wheels are pretty heavy. Not sure on the heaviest of all time

could it be a Bugatti Royale (though all are accounted for)? they were spinning big steel 20's in, well, the 20's

My guess would be 50's Buick steel wires. I just pulled an aftermarket set off my pickup that are steel and my guess would be 30+ lbs.

Those wheels make my lower back hurt.

Although a Bugatti is a little rich for MECUM's blood.

That sounds familiar. I'm sure it was some old American car.

I assumed those cars were just made entirely from pig iron and collapsed star cores.

Yeah, a chunky 5-spoke AMG wheel showed up when I searched "heaviest production car wheels."

Well, it was actually one of many wheels.

I couldn't get a definitive answer and I kept getting redirected to "heaviest Hotwheels cars."
