Well after reading up here and every where I have lots of info and no real answers..
Im looking to upgrade to a AT tire but tire weight is a concern. Im trying to get the best of both worlds.. Cool looking tire and a min of MPG loss.
2009 Xterra - X Steel rims
Stock 265 70 16 rims 38-40 lbs per rim x 4 = 152-160lbs (weight seems debatable on Xterra forums)
BFG Long trail 35-40 lbs 30.6" tall 10.6 Wide x 4 = 140-160lbs
Adding:
Nissan S Alloy rims 27 lbs per x 4 = 108lbs lbs
Goodyear Duratracs E
285 75 16 33.1 11.30 wide 55 lbs x 4 = 220 lbs
BFG KO E
285 75 16 33.0 11.30 wide 55.7 lbs x 4 = 222.8 lbs
BFG KO D
285 75 16 32.80 11.40 wide 58.2 lbs x 232.8 lbs
Is there anything Im leaving out ?
