Schwable Ultremo....Ultremo differences in weight!

Some nice Ultremo 25’s arrived yesterday. As I do now and again I like to check the actual weights with the manufacturers claimed weight.
Claimed weight of 215g, actual weight tyre 1 = 198g, tyre 2 = 230g!
Quite surprised at this, checked the size (maybe a 23 had sneaked in), checked the tyres and they are identical, checked and double checked again..... seems quite an “ultremo” variance imho..
I've installed them and seem to be fine, not ridden them yet though

Did you put the porker on the front or the back?
