Pizza Anyone?
I've had 315/75's on my truck since the stock tires had worn out. At 16mpg on 3:55 gears I didn't realize the stress I was putting on the truck. I dropped down to 285/75 get some mileage back (which I did) but wow I got some power too! Only thing thats taking some getting use to is the look . It lowered the truck a few inches and they look sooooo skinny. Oh well, it may look different but I'm getting 17mpg now and I got me some power back.

These skinny little tire were the biggest gettin used to when I went with these 19.5 Rickson wheels and tires to. But they ride much nicer then the old wide ones do and less rubber on the road means less resistance on the truck. They also get around the soft stuff better then old wide tires did to. Guess that's why the Military always put the skinny little tires on all the old jeeps and trucks.

FFDfiretruck , I don't think 305's would hurt your power, gotta remeber I drive a Ford !
2500HeavyDuty, sorry they just look funny. Lots of room in the fender well!
The truck does ride and handle a bit better, you can feel the most difference when climbing a hill on the highway. Has more get up and go when its being lugged.
