I wasn’t sure if I should ass this in here or not…

What size lift do you have?

What happened to your gas mileage after putting on your 35’s or larger tire?

I bought mine with the 35s so I can't give a baseline, but with the existing 3.73 gears I was getting (mathmatically) 10.3 mpg. Now, the actual mpg number is probably about 6% higher than that, because the speedo/odo is off by that much. Since I put on the Edge programmer the mpg number is 13.2. (again probably 6% lower than the actual)

Daystar 2.5" lift front and back, trimming in the front. 325/65R18 tires. I get around 11mpg around town and 13-15 on the highway now with the superchips 91 tune, I've never gotten good mileage with this thing but it's a bit quicker than when I bought it.
