Put these wheel spacers to the test. Definitely gives me more piece of mind after what I put them through today.

Looks like a blast! What brand of spacers are you using?

This hits me in the gut every time I think about going to larger wheels/tires. I've become way to conscious of mpg.
Stick with 17" wheels and go up one size on tires. It will barely hurt it. Research tire and wheel weights if your that worried about it. My BFG's are heavier tires compared to others in the same size. Or BFGT haha is what I should call them. Adding a lift and changing the offset a lot is where it hurts.

DO you think these tires would fit stock height with removing the front brows and crash beams?

Awesome!
thanks for the quick reply man. I think i sent something in another thread you are on. I just got general grabbers and they're bigger than expected but if i can fit them with just the front removal im not as dumb as i thought haha.

I'm getting 21mpg consistently with 1K# payload running 265/65/r18's your numbers seem to be a bit off. (however this directly depends on how you drive these trucks) They are pretty fun when you put your foot into it! your only an inch taller than me, and have taken a huge hit. My buddy is running 32.5"s and getting 20mph. (WE BOTH LIVE IN FLORIDA!)

My 2nd oil analysis has come back. First 9k miles was on the factory oil. Followed by M1 Full Syn to 18k. Ran the oil life meter to 5%. And since these results were still showing good results I always run NAPA's gold or platinum oil filters (w/e their top of the line filter they offer). Since it's the build quality on them are A1. No catch can and I probably won't even install one. Since it will likely be sold/trade in next year.
