Bob I got 30.5 lbs on a digital scale at work. Should be right on the money.

Going with the Pirelli gives you an extra 1.6" of tread width total on the rear end, quite substantial. Of course assuming that both tread widths exactly comparable.
Cool.

I just measured my Nitto 335/30/19's. They were right at 13" wide.

Cool.

And the BFG KDW's on tire rack shows 13.2" putting it just below the Pirelli but .7" wider than the PS2...( I looked at the 335 18's)..I know not much but still

Don't forget that the Pirellis are the most expensive-- about $554 as I recall from Tire Rack. Michelins second around $485 each. You pay for that inch and a half!!!--Bob
