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.

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.
