Default Jim, Weight of Bridgestone 255/35-18 RE-11?
What is the weight of the 225/40-18 and 255/35-18 Bridgestone Potenza RE-11?

Your site lists the weight as 26 and 27 respectively, while Bridgestone's lists the weight 25 and 29 respectively.

We weigh the tires here so I will go with what we have listed. The tire mfg's will sometimes list shipping weights.
If I can help with the tires let me know.

I will say that I would not let weight on a tire be the determining factor.
You can make a very light tire that just doesn't handle well because they are lacking internal construction.
