I'm deciding between these and the Nokian Rotiiva AT Plus in the same size and would like to go with whichever is lighter.
I would probably email Nitto to find out what the weight is.

I emailed Nitto this morning and received the following response from the Nitto Technical Services Department within an hour.

LT275/70R18 E 125Q = 59.97 lbs.


LT285/70R18 E 127/124Q = 61.95 lbs.

They look great.

I'm looking for bigger tire myself. I wonder if 285/65/17 will fit on my 2005 with stock crome lariat rims ?

Old thread I know... how are these holding up? I really want to run 285/70/18 but don’t have many options.

These are great tires. I have approximately 30.000 miles on them and they still have well over half of tread remaining. rotate every 5.000. Expensive, but worth it. They are a bit noisy but not as bad as an m/t.

Glad to hear it. How is wet traction? I live in Seattle so lots of rain and traffic. One concern is heavy braking in rain and hitting standing water on the highway.

I have nothing negative to say about these tires. great in snow, rain. A little noisy but it is an aggressive tire . Noise just goes with the territory. Best in snow that I have ever had. next best for me is Firestone A/T 6 ply. Quiet and very good in all conditions but just not quite as good as the Nittos. The Nittos barely have any wheel weights, they are just a step above the rest. I will be buying again when needed.
