Does anybody know the weights of the P tires VS the LT ones? I'm curious how much more my Rebel weighs due to the off road tires over a non off road setup.

Not totally sure what your asking. but if your wanting to compare how much more LT tires weigh vs P tires. here is the duratrac in 275/65r18 size, for comparison. they don't make the 275/70r18 duratrac in P
p rating = 45lbs = 16/32 tread depth = 2756 weight capacity
LT C range = 49lbs = 18/32 tread depth = 2535 weight rating
LT E range = 50lbs = 18/32 tread depth = 3415 weight rating

so it looks like the weight is mostly from the extra tread depth rather than the weight capacity. the p rating tire will get better mpg due to shallower tread depth.

the 275/70r18 on the rebel weights 55lbs. most 275/65r18 all seasons like would come on a laramie or big horn are around 40-45lbs a tire.

If you have the Wildpeaks; they will be significantly higher that the Duratracs.....Duratracs are pretty light for off road tires. The Wildpeaks would be about 61 lbs.

So about 5-10 lbs more per tire. That's all I wanted to know, thanks.
