I roll a ICON 6"front/OUO 7" rear on Toyo AT LT285/75R18 which get me 16mpg pretty regular. Tire/wheel width, tuning and overall running condition will determine the end MPG.

Why???? LOL. Are those your winter tires or something? Why such a big lift and small tires?


I run 35x12.5x17's, 3.73 gearing, 5R110, leveling kit, supercab shortbed, 4x4, SCT tuning EGR delete, I think 15 is probably my average and I get on it pretty good usually. I would definitely be interested in checking it again sometime. Winter fuel now though, so it's pretty much a moot point.

45+ MPG in my TDI though...
