Post by whiteknight »

Anyone know how heavy a 35" BFG Muddie on a 15x8 Sunny is?

Trying to get a price on shipping 4 to Cairns but need to know the weight.

Last time I checked air didn't weigh anything- if anything wouldn't the tyre be lighter especially if the air is heated from driving (warm air rises)?

correct me if I'm wrong :oops:
Meh...

I'm surprised it adds a full half kilo, but of course compressed air weighs more than air at atmospheric pressure. It's denser.

I stand corrected :oops:

Found this:- http://www.madsci.org/posts/archives/20 ... .Ch.r.html

Interesting read- but according to this fella it is unlikely that the difference would be 500grams- probably closer to 90-120 grams
Meh...
