larger tires weigh a lot, also looks like you have a rack? got stuff in your trunk? weight adds up quick

Bigger tires weigh a ton. The rack also adds to the weight, and then you also have to consider yourself. When you drive on the scale your still in the vehicle Im assuming. Also those scales are always a bit off depending on where the scale is. I know the scrape yard scale here is WAYY off. But what they do is have you drive on it weigh it, have you empty the metal and then reweigh the vehicle to get the correct amount of metal on the vehicle.
