What Would It Weigh

800 pounds
A 12.4 X 36 will hold about 40-45 gal which will weigh about 500 lbs depending how strong it's mixed. the center will weigh a couple hundred pounds and the tire and rim over 100 so my estimate of 800 is on the low side I'm guessing.
 
You will think it weighs a lot more than that when your taking one off and it gets away from you and it lays over on it's side and there is nobody to help you stand it back up. I think your pretty close at 800 without the weight
 
Is this a contest? or do you not know the correct answer? I'm going to guess 930 lbs. Is there a prize for the correct answer or at least a blue ribbon.
 
This is America, we are all winners!!! :)

Actually, I really didn't know... I was guessing in the 700 range, but I just wanted to see!!

The reason I asked, is because dad and I were outside fumbling around with one (swapped tires on tractors...) Well, of course, one fell over on us, and I tried to pick it up and was shocked that I could stand it up!!!

He has bad Hernia problems, and ain't supposed to lift anything, so I had to get the little Yanmar out, and I went to pick it up, and the rear end got very light on me!!

I was again shocked that it almost didn't want to pick it up!! The most I have lifted with that tractor was about 1200 lbs, and that was with the rear end chained to the ground. 1000 lbs is the most it will pick up with out just setting the nose on the ground, so that tire had to have been in the 800-900 lb range... I think that the weight is probably about 80 lbs!!

Good guesses everyone! Thanks so much! Bryce
