Nice winter hoops! I'm a bit jello TBH.
Theres a recent thread on MTBR where the new knobbly from surly has been studded (I think by folk involved with Sandman bikes).
Nate tyres (120 tpi) = 3040g
Flat 80, 907 rim = 1600g
266 studs = 170g
hubs (pair) = 800g
Rim strips = 50g
Spokes = 382g
nipples = 64g
rotors = 240g
So 6346g (without sprocket). Although that is a pretty high end build, using drilled out rims. The target for my (flotation orientated) wheels is under 6Kg, with a 108mm tyre width. If I do some home studding. It will be with the budget Ortigin8 tyres, which would add 500g to the build. Taking into account my rims are probably nearly 100g each heavier. Thats over 7Kg the pair (sans cassette).
