Lighter weight 37's

[Gliebig]

Considering going 37's and would like to keep weight down if possible. Any recommendations for a lighter weight 37? (preferably a mud terrain)

There may be a lot of people that jump on here and offer suggestions.

I will say this. A lightweight MT is not going to be very durable. If you are concerned with ending up stranded somewhere offroad but weight is an absolute deal breaker, 37s might not be the right idea.

I like the question, I'm all about lightweight too, but sadly tires is just not the place to cut a measurable amount.

I think on Discount Tires website they display the tire weight; might be work checking out.

On my JL I'm running Load range E LT 35x12.5.......why that heavy duty.........becasue my wife daily drives it

The Milestar Patagonias have held up well for a bunch of people on here. That said, they do wear faster as Levi mentioned.

I abuse my tires and while the Patagonias aren’t as rock solid as the Maxxis Razrs I was running before, they have handled sharp rocks and tree stumps without an issue.

My wheel and tire setup is sub 100lbs each though, and that feels great.

General Grabber MT and the Yokohama MT ( not the crazy looking ) are some of the lightest 37s available. I went with Nitto Trail Grapplers. Now if my wheels and lift would show up I’d. E good to go.

I second Milestar Pat's. I always here good things about them. I currently have 35'' nitto trail grapplers and love them, but i want to go bigger. I'm debating going to 38" milestars msyelf

Milestar Pats 37" MTs are approx 70 pounds each.

This thread is a great resource for tire weight and I've had it bookmarked for awhile.

I ultimately went with Cooper's Discoverer STT Pros. A balance of toughness, lighter, and they fit below.

I’m thinking I may try Goodyear MTR’s 37/12.5 r17’s are 75lbs each I had 265/70r17’s on my ram 2500 and loved them.

Check out Carbonsteel’s spreadsheet in this thread for 35, 37, and 40” tire sizes and weights.

I wouldn't give a dime to Goodyear after they put their thumb on the political scales. Go woke = Go broke

Is that just one side of the scales? All large corporations funnel money to politicians. Anyway, I’ve never had good luck with Goodyear tires so that’s why I didn’t go with them.

I had 37x12.50x20 Toyo Open Country M/T's on 20-inch XD rims on my last Jeep, and I have 37x12.50x17 BFG KM3 M/T's on 17-inch Black Rhinos on my Gladiator now. Admittedly this is not an accurate comparison, but the BFG set up is NOTICEABLY lighter. I wanted the Toyo M/T's on the Gladiator, but they were on indefinite backorder. My tire dealer had the KM3's in stock in the 37's, so I bought them instead. Not sure about the lifespan since I only have a few thousand miles on them. But I religiously rotate my M/T's every 5K miles. So far, they've been great.
