I weighed my 800 rear wheel with rim on a bathroom scale and came in at 36lbs. My KQ rear tire with rim came in at 23lbs.

Here are the weights on my '05 700 EFI stock wheels/tires (steel/pxt's):

Front: 26 lbs
Rear: 36 lbs

And if you remember, I have 27" Mud Lites and 27" 589's on type 5C wheels, here are the weights:

Rear Tire: 27" ITP 589 w/ ITP Type 5C Aluminum wheel - 40.5 pounds
27" ITP Mudlite w/ ITP Type 5C Aluminum wheel - 37.5 pounds

Front Tire: 27" ITP 589 w/ ITP Type 5C Aluminum wheel - 37 pounds
27" ITP Mudlite w/ITP Type 5C Aluminum wheel - 32 pounds

Both front tires are 27x9-12
The 589 rear tires are 27x11-12
The Mudlite rear tires are 27x12-12

So does this mean the stock steel wheel is 11 lbs? Its hard to belive the front tire alone only weighs 15lbs.

'04 stock size Carlisle Badland XTR
F 19 lbs
R 21 lbs

Vision wheels weight
12x7 13lbs
12x8 14 lbs.

no...the wheels are different sizes from front to rear, width wise....

the rear steel wheel must weight 11 pounds according to your estimate.....the front is probably somewhat less, maybe 8 pounds or so, so the tire would weigh around 17 pounds....the stock front tire is pretty light...

these are only guesses, maybe someone wants to remove their tire from the wheel and weight it....ha
