Hutchinson lists them at 36lbs, but I think that is without the internal 'rubber' beadlock ring, so closer to 40-45 with that. The thick matching surfaces for the halves and those 18 bolts sure don't help.
The 20" versions on my MB1017 are 85 pounds each without the beadlock ring so the Gladiator version wheels seem relevantly light

My biggest concern is the backpacking at 4.63", vs 6.0" for stock wheels, it seems like they will stick out 1.5-2.0 inches past the fenders? Here they are mounted on the 'XMT Light Tactical Vehicle'.

As those are mounted on the 'XMT Light Tactical Vehicle' they are probably a 'Mil-Spec' wheel. The 'star pattern' of the available Rock Monsters is certainly lighter than those.

Meh, they still made them in a 5x5 pattern to mount onto their gladiator. Those others are ugly to me. These are the first I’ve seen that I like. They’re even “DOT-T”

Late to the party here... I just ordered a Gobi Glad so I'm browsing through looking for wheels.

I run the Hutchinsons in 15" flavor on my TJ and they're awesome. I highly recommend for a trail rig, but they are heavy for sure. I'm not sure I'd run them on the street, but then again I'm running some pretty aggressive 37x12.5r15 "balanced" with airsoft pellets. The whole setup is crazy heavy. Even with 5.13s and a supercharger there's no masking the weight.

Finally got the rims on with new tires. I got a good deal with the rim/sensor combo. Sorry for the rainy shots, I got home and it began to pour as soon as I started unloading the winter steels lol

I don't even have my Gladiator yet, it's ordered, but I'm gathering parts... Just had my tires mounted and balanced today.

Next to the bald 37" Pitbulls on my TJ (which I also have new ones of, just need to mount them up once the weather gets nice)

Same dilemma here...had these 37 Ridge Grapplers mounted up on Quadratec cheapo wheels since the beginning of January and STILL no JTR in my driveway.

These are Black Rhino Rapids with Cooper Discoverer XLT tires (37x12.5R17). Happy with this light wheel/tire combination.

I started with these...

Same. ?

Not to go too far off topic here but what's your suspension setup? That's about the perfect stance for 37s imo

Thanks - I really like it too!

I have a 3.5-inch @Clayton Off Road Overland lift. Can’t say enough great things about the lift too.

Here is a bit of a step by step of the install in Post #106:
