Looking for the best "light weight" 35 (or close) AT tire for my stock JL Sahara rims. Looking to avoid anything load range D or E. So far it looks like two options:

295/70/18 Nitto Recon Grappler - love the looks, and the lightest one I can find (52.5 lbs), comes in at 34.4" diameter, so perfect there. I have ran probably 7-10 sets of Toyos and Nittos over the years and always liked them. My hang up is no 3PMSF rating and it looks like they don't have a ton of siping. I live in WI so we get snow and I occasionally take it out west on ski trips.

35x11.5x18 Falken WildPeak AT4W - heavier, at 62.6 lbs and load range C. Closer to an actual 35 (34.9"), which is nice. has the 3PMSF rating. My hang up here is the extra 10 lbs. Never owned a set of Falkens, but they seem to get good reviews.

Any one else have thoughts on these tires or any others I should consider? I do moderate trails (in Moab, like hells revenge or top of the world, and then other stuff back in WI), but it's also driven on the highway a lot.
 
I'd like the lightest lead ingots too..

heh light 35's ( I know what you mean)

good luck.
