what the weight is of 26x2.5? thanks!

2.49 lbs. Just weighed one on my digital scale

I have 3.50 inches total in between my forks at the top would this tire fit?

Yes it should fit. For me the problem fitting high volume tires is always the narrowing of the chain stays at the bottom bracket. If you are using these on a bike with horizontal dropouts the you can just add chain links. I have had these on my single speed 26” wheel mountain bike and a 24” wheel BMX cruiser. They are great tires in the woods and on pavement - sort of made me rethink the need for knobby tires in many circumstances.

I have a 29x2.20˝ front, 29x2.00˝ rear. Trek Marlin 5. I'm just worried the wider hookworm will rub against the frame/shocks?

they should fit. These hookworms fit on my Trek Marlin 7, which had the same Bontrager 29x2.00" front & 29x2.20" rear tires.... i left a review with pictures

Should the tires be on a certain rotation direction? I noticed I installed the two differently based on the logo that is only on one sidewall.

My tires had the same logo/branding on both sides of the tire. I don't thing there is any specific need to install for rotational direction. I imagine if there was there would be a note on the tire itself similar to what is done with automotive tires.
