After Blackwaters tire thread and the questions I had about the law mst's I did a little research and came across this site at the high lifter tire talk forum"mudinmybloodforumtireweightchart". The mst's aren't as heavy as everybody thinks

27x9.5-12 27lbs.
27x12-12 30lbs.

carlisle act xlr(stock can-am tires)

26x9-12 22.6
26x11-12 28.4

maxxis bighorn

26x9-12 25.7
26x12-12 32.8

ITP mudlite xtr's

26x9-12 26.8
26x11-12 32.3

These are a few I wanted to post b/c they're popular, to me they're all pretty damn close.I did rhis search b/c when asking about the mst's everybody said they were so much heavier and as you can see (if that chart is accurate) the rear 26" bighorn weighs more than the rear 27" mst. Sometimes it pays to do your own search, I just couldn't believe the mst's would be that much heavier than other tires.
Mt one question to you all is can 3-10 lbs. all the way around make that big of a loss in power? I know it will affect it abit, but so much that your talking big performance losses.

 

That chart isn't very accurate. Just take a look at the maxxis website for their weights. I think the MST and bighorn numbers are backwards, but still a little high for the horns. 26x9x12 BH is 22.9 lbs. 26x12x12 is 30.

The 27" bighorn is a little closer in weight to the 27" MST, but the bighorn will probably be taller.

XTR's are probably the heaviest of the ones you have listed.

 

BTW, that chart is skewed because the guy who owns the forum is a Highlifter employee. The debate over the MST and Bighorn has been going on for years over there.

 

That did cross my mind, just signed up @ HL forum to talk to sawhead and lips. I would like to see that video you've got of the mst's you had! Can you post it here , I'm not real computer savvy. Gotta go now, wife needs computer for school exam. But thanks for all your input, greatly appreiciated!

Here is another one with Bighorns and stock PXT tires. I was trying to show a few things in this vid while playing around on untouched snow in the yard at our cabin.

Do you know where a guy could find a tire chart that would be unbiased and accurate?
