Re: Woman Killed by a Truck Tyre
That's a set of duel wheels of a artic trailer , the stub axle has broke, it would take 4 men to lift that, so that's how heavy that would be.

Re: Woman Killed by a Truck Tyre
Working at a bus company for 9yrs I've changed many tires and yes they're big heavy bastards. The steel rims alone are approx. 80lbs each and the tires another 60lbs each. With both rims attached to each other there is a hub assembly and/or brake drum in there also so that entire thing probably weighs 400lbs. It must have ben moving pretty slow when it hit her or she hit it because it would have completely destroyed her body otherwise.
