Alright, not those lead thingies clamped to the rim, how about everyone posts the weight of their tire/wheels. I just got a set of SXs, and my second thought was holy $#!+, these things are heavy (first thought was yipee :D ).
So I got the wifey suckered into some HGTV, and I was able to sneak the bathroom scale to out to the garage. Here's what I got.
36x12.5 TSL SX on steel 15x8 w/homebrew (I think) beadlocks = 124lbs
35x12.5 BFG MT (old style) on 15x8 aluminum wheels = 64 lbs
35x12.5 BFG AT (old style) on 15x7 steel wagon wheel = 66 lbs [my spare]
Not uber scientific, but confirmed my initial reaction that the SXs were about twice my old wheel :huggy:
 
Wow, those are heavy. But those tires are almost indestructable and the home made beadlocks are beefy.

I know my old 35" mtr on a steel wheel was about 75lbs & my 37" mtr on a beadlock must be about 90lbs.

Ok, Tony get ready for some carnage with those meats!

:beer:

Oh yeah and my spare is a 36" TSL SX on a steel wheel with a weld on beadlock. I know what that weighs now. :D
