35 psi... as he noted

Unfortunately, Nitto does not publish their tire weights. Even when I called, the person I spoke with only had a weight spec for one of their Trail Grappler tires (295/70/17). That weight is 71 lbs.

He guessed for the other two tire sizes I inquired about:
285/70/17: 68 lbs
315/70/17: 79 lbs

This shouldn't be a surprise, but these weights are very close to the similarly sized Toyo's.

I'm running the 295/70R18 and I found at one point they weigh in at 72 lbs. I believe the KM2 were something like 68 lbs for the 35's. Anyway, you're talking about 25 - 50 lbs you're adding which isn't much considering your average passenger is going to be 150 lbs. These are wearing evenly and ride as quiet as stock IMHO. plus they look awesome..

I'd buy them again in a heart beat.

I once heard every pound of rotating mass is more like 8. A few pounds more per tire, times 4, times 8 adds up if that's accurate.

#2 was the Goodyear MTR Kevlar

#1 was the Hankook Dynapro MT

Just a few days ago I came to the decision I was going to use this tire when I upgrade. They are priced really well for an 18. Did you find that you needed the spidertrax? any other issues with the fit? Have any pics? Thanks a lot!

I just bought a set of trail grapplers and wheels 10 minutes ago

Still under 50 lbs. and if you want to get precise, then we have to calculate gravity and momentum too.. Anyway you look at it, I lost a total of less than 2 mpg upgrading to a 2.5" TF Lift and the tires listed below.. nothing to sweat about.

Yes you will need spidertrax. I went with the size below for a couple of reasons.
1. Emissions in colorado won't test 35's, so I would have to rent or buy smaller tires to pass emissions.
2. I'm hoping (although not proven) the 11.5 in width vs 12.5 in will cut down some resistance as well as help in snowy (on road) conditions where the thinner tire won't be as much of a ski.

two things I ran in to:
1. my tires rubbed the air dam at full turn, so that is off now.
2. the weight of the tire damaged my stock tire carrier / tailgate after 3 months. I am now running the AEV tire carrier as I popped a couple of welds.

Here's the pics: Sorry, haven't updated recently.
