Need to find tire specs...
I thought I already posted this, but I can't find my post! Sorry if I am re, or cross posting. Not intentional...
I need to find weight specs for 3 different tires...
BFG All Terrain KO 285/70R17 (what I have now...)
BFG Mud Terrain KM2 305/65R17
Maxxis Bighorn 305/70R17
Some financial setbacks kept me out of the tire shops, but I am in a position now to be looking again...
I want to know how much these tires weigh, to see how much of a negative impact the added rolling weight will have...

^^ thats gunna be your best bet. If I were you, I'd just give em a call see if they can help you out.
Rolling weight AND rolling resistance both play a key part in MPG loss.

DB, Toyo is the only one I could find tire weight's on, a 285x70x17 Toyo AT weigh's 53 lbs., where a 295x70x17 Toyo MT weigh's 73 lbs. I'm sure a BFG 285 AT ought to be close to 53 lbs. and a 305x65 MT and a 305x70 Maxxis MT ought to be in the 70 to 75 lb. range. Just a guess but I know the mudder's are a good bit heavier than the AT's.
