I need to sort out postage for a swing out spare wheer carrier. Does anyone know what they weigh roughly?

It's an educated guess - 35kg

A freestyle alloy with a new BFG AT on it weighs just under 32kg. I weighed one once 
And it's canny heavy!
A swing away is lighter than that, I reckon.

I've got the Freestyles with BFG AT's I guessed they where 30 odd Kg's, cos it near broke my back lifting it off the door carrier.
Eventually got the swing out weighed. It came out at 19.5Kg postage thoruge DPD worked out the best deal.
The carrier is quite a robust looking thing, swings with the door. Even has a plate to mount a high lift 3t jack.

Aye, it's an eye opener how heavy the alloy & tyre combo is.
I gave my swing away carrier away. I've got a false wheel on the back now, attached to a standard wheel carrier in the middle of the door. The false wheel is light as a feather
