Anyone have any exact weights on the two. I know my sportsman pro's on my bogart's are more than 4 lbs heavier than my 165 kumho on draglites I will try to get them weighed this weekend.

I'm gnona say it's more like 10 lbs per tire, going from a sportsman pro to a DS-2, I will try to get one of my bogarts with the ds-2 mounted up on the scale this weekend if I have time. I do have a thick spacer welded onto the inside of my wheels... but that might be coming off if I can determine there's enough space between the wheel and my aerospace brakes. to not have a clearnance issue. Just not sure how to get it off, the welds look pretty thick, and I'm not 100% that it's just the 5 spots on the back of the wheel either.

just weighed my 1 piece 15x3.5 aluma star 2.0's with the 26x7.5 Mickey Thompson 4 ply Sportsman pros. Both weighed in at 24.3 lbs each. Pretty sure the front aluma stars are around 9.75 lbs. So that would make the tires 14.55 lbs each.
