The tires say 50-75 but a few lbs less can't hurt.
Yeah, I'm going to try the guard first....I don't really want to mess with shortening the chain yet. Unless I have to.

I weigh 145 right now...lost almost 10 since spring. Happens every year to me.
It'll come back....Fall comes along with a bigger appetite.
