Default Sawblade Weight?

How much do the 8.5" and 9.5" sawblades weigh? These are off a '94. Also, roughly how much weight would the tires add?

I don't know what they weigh by themselves but the 9.5 with a 285 tire weighs about 47 lbs and the 8.5 with a 255 tire weighs 46 lbs.

Going by memory the 8.5s are 23 lbs, and the 9.5s are 26 lbs.

Thanks dude, that's perfect! Does anyone know the dimensions of the 8.5" with a 45 series tire and a 9.5" with a 40 series tire?

It would be the dimension of the tires themselves depending on their width. Contact someone at Tire Rack for specific dimensions. Each tire is a little different too.
