Hankook Dynapro Mt's. Work awesome in snow, mud, rocks, and general trails. Considerably lighter than most other 35's, given they will and do wear a little quicker than heavier ply tires.

I would check out the Goodyear MTR with Kevlar... Pretty sure they're around 10lbs less per wheel than most (from what I remember reading somewhere...)

C load rating from any brand will be lighter than D or E.

I'd say if you find anything under 65lbs you're doing good.

X2 on this ^

That being said, I like my KM2's in the 35x12.5x15 variety (C rated). They weight 61 lbs and have hooked up great in all the rocks and mud i've thrown at them
