Maybe 15mpg on a good day. 10-ish on average. Those tires are BIG...and heavy. Your MPG's are going to suffer with that big a lift and tires!

I have 35"s and I get about 15-18....If I baby it...I can get 20+ mpgs. I hardly EVER baby it though. It's usually balls to the wall....and I get 15 mpg.

With 37s I am getting 11mpg, I am going to regear to 4.30 and HOPEFULLY pick up a few mpg's.
