I need to get me a nice big tire for my ever-expanding strongman circuit. Does anyone know how the weight corresponds to different diameters? Any and all tire hunting tips you strongman peoples can provide is much appreciated. (Man, I want some really weird stuff for x-mas!) ;D

I’m not super experienced with the tires but from the little exposure I’ve gotten the weight of a tire has less to do with its diameters and more with its construction and the material in it.

Here is a link to a page that will give you some ideas. www.ontariostrongman.ca/Resources/tires/tire_weight.pdf dbunch is somewhat right also, though the diameter/size plays a major part in the weight, so does the construction/materials used. Also, if the tire is used or new will play into things. You can get these larger tires for free at most local truck centers. It costs them to dispose of them and are usually happy to give them away. They will also know, within reason, what they weigh. |

I have 3 semi tires for sleds around 40 pounds each and a big tractor not very heavy just a starter around 100-150 but best tires are from a loader or big dump and I mean big those are around 800-1000 each. hope this helps.
