Has anyone tried these tires off Amazon?

These came in today, and was surprised at how heavy duty they are. Especially the sidewalls are thicker than the Shinkos I bought last year. I initially wanted some knobby tires, but as my uses of the Trail are evolving, and I seem to be using mine on pavement much more than I thought, I wanted to get something a little smoother than a knobby, but with a bit more off pavement grip than the stock tires have. Still winter here, so I have a ways to go before I can try them out.

How heavy are they?
They definitely are stiffer and seem more heavy duty than the Shinko's I have. If you are looking for a heavier duty tire that is a cross between a street tire and light off road use these might be a good choice, better than the stock tires I think. If however you are asking about weight with an eye towards lightening the CT 125, they might be a pound or so more, I couldn't say. The CT 125 is too heavy for sure but tires will not make a noticeable difference in that regard.
