Does anyone know the weight of a 18.4 by 38 firestone 151 feild and road on a 18in 9 bolt tin wheel

 

[778899m]

all the way from 200# to 350 plus# depending on weight of rims,ply of tire,width of rim

I just weighed mine a few weeks ago... F151 gum dipped, on widened 18" wheels, 6ply, 320lbs. I lightened the centers up about 14-15lbs. Each by cutting 8 big coffee can size holes in centers...

So 305 lbs. each @ 35% bar. Should lose some more weight after cut.

Eric I have seen them vary by 20 LBS with tires that had been together all their life. The lightest I've seen was about 190 but I've seen them as heavy as 235 before also and these were all 6 ply tires. The 151 Firestone's have the biggest weight variance of all tires that I've weighed. The earlier Traction Field & Roads are all about 175. It's for sure with 151's they need to be weighed before using because of the weight difference just for weighting the tractor when pulling.
