[QUOTE="TacomaJD, post: 614876, member: 1780"] I don't think the swampers run much if any heavier than most of the 8 ply utv tires in the 30-31" range. I don't remember exact numbers, but read comparisons between all the major heavier 8 ply utv tires vs swampers regarding weight and they all were pretty close. The thing most ppl don't understand is an 8 ply in a utv tire isn't the same as the ply rating in the truck tire world. As I understand it, there is no standard by which a ply is measured in a utv tire, unlike truck tires. This is where the weight difference comes in and how you can have a 30" ITP Blackwater Evo 8 ply tire that is significantly lighter but yet the same size as my 30" EFX Motoclaw 8 ply tires. The Motoclaws are some of the toughest 8 ply utv tires out and just so happens they are heavy.....that extra weight comes from thicker TOUGHER plies in the tire than the ITP Blackwater. [/QUOTE]
