mpg loss
how much do you guys think i will notice in the mpg department if i go from my 265/75s up to 285/75s on stock wheels? Im thinking maybe .5 to close to a full 1 mpg? I know right now with the 265/75s im getting close to 18.5 highway and like 14 in town.

Re: mpg loss
if i remember correctly, i would get about 300 to 320 miles a tank with 305/70's so thats roughly anywhere from 12 to 12.8 mpg, which was about 95% city driving

Re: mpg loss
i get anywhere from 13-16 mpg. but i think other mods might be causing the crappy milage. the 16 mpg i got was a couple months ago driving to vegas.
