35" Tire / 17" Wheel Combo

[JFarris]

Does anyone know what the lightest combo is for a Jeep?

i think the Duratracs are supposed to be the lightest AT, its a toss up between the MTR/K's and the KM2's on which of those are the lightest. it varies in the tire size. the lightest 17" wheel you can find is going to be of the Forged flavor, there is only a couple companies that make forged wheels in the states anymore.

Thanks for the info. I would really like to get the lightest combo out there,

Tire rack provides a weight for each tire, if you look in the specs. they have it listed for each size.

Not sure if they are the lightest tire, but I recently got a set of Hankook DynoPro ATMs, have had them about 3k miles now, they are pretty nice and good in the rain to. And they also have a 55K mile tread warranty, along with a good price. I was looking at discount tire and i think the 315s were $258/$268

My 35" KM2s on 17x8 Black Rock wheels should arrive in a day or two. I'm planning on weighing one. I'll post up when I do.

I finally got my tires and wheels (they mounted them on wheels of the wrong bolt pattern and had to re-order). My bathroom scale that I have in the garage is junk, so I could not get an actual weight. BFG claims that the 35x12.50R17 weights 60.12 and Blackrock shows the shipping weight of the 17 X 8 Type D Series 909S is 23 lbs. That would make the package weigh 83.12 lbs each.
