I'll let you know. It might be a while. Not an easy sales pitch to my wife to get wheels and tires right after buying the truck so I might just run through these tires and then switch to some AT's. What kind are you going to go with? I'm leaning towards Toyo's or Cooper's.I'd like to hear back what you avg after getting the speedometer recalibrated for the tire size. I usually avg around 22 in warm weather an 19-20 in the winter. I don't hammer it often but it is fun so I do it a few times a week. I plan on lifting my ranger 2-2.5" an adding 265/70/17 tires an I'm watching the tire weight to be as close to the factory weight as possible. I have the livernois tuner an ran the 87-89 tune for about 1500 miles an have run the 91-93 for the last 3000 or so. seems like I get the same mileage out of both tunes. I think it might be because I don't have to get on the gas as much to get the acceleration I want. It might be a fraction better with the tune than stock but getting the power increase without a mpg penalty makes the tune worth the price IMO. Livernois won't claim an mpg improvement because they say there are so many veritables in driving style, use an fuel quality it would be hard to prove.
You should put a fuel economy tracker or speedometer app on your phone...fill the truck up an track mileage with an app an figure out the mpg that way. I had a Harley without a speedometer an I used my phone as one until I got the feel for the speeds I was going. I never used the tripometer feature though.
