isnt that the truth. i did find out that the 42s only weight 3 lbs more than my 37s. so weight wise it will be close to what i have.

You're also going from an aluminum wheel to a steel wheel with a bead lock, that's going to add on some more weight as well.

the aluminum wheels were pretty heavy, probably weigh as much as the steelies with just the inside ring so only the outside ring in weight.

though i still dont want this 44...
