Core Wheels vs "Foundation Series" Wheels

[SSonnentag]

Do we have an official term for the non-Core wheels?

Anyway, I'm wondering if anyone has posted any specifications on the two types of wheels: weight, width, etc. The bottom line as to what I'd like to know is the efficiency difference between the two wheel types, both with covers and without while equipped with the same tires.

Meh. I see you evangelizing for these wheels and arguing with people all over the place about how they’re (the wheels) superior. Hard disagree. There’s no accounting for taste and these are obviously less attractive and the tires they are matched with are truly fugly.

I simply posted a chart from the owners manual showing basic facts and your woke mind virus goes berserk lol.

The chart doesn’t indicate the difference in weight of the tires though. I am wondering how much the wheels themselves differ. It may only be about 10% of that 35#.

No, you’ve responded across two threads to any rejection of your suggestion that these wheels are better with vitriol condescension and stupidity (I could do a whole bunch of screenshots to prove that but it’s unnecessary the record speaks for itself). But here’s the deal, that’s like a clarion for me to show up and be your huckleberry.

Your taste and judgement are as bad as your insults. Woke Mind Virus? Here? In this context? Are you ok?

Surprising that the all season tires loose so much payload rating. Most have more than sufficient load capacity. They are probably a bit lighter so you would expect the opposite.
