    I'm getting about 25 MPG highway with my 2.73s...
    I get about the same with 3.27's.

        I managed to get mine up to 18.5 per the tripminder. Shame its so generous, 16.5 is probably closer to realistic. Steady 14.8 with the lopo and 3.55.

            Did you clean them up? Cause they sure as hell didn't look that good when they still in the truck, lol

              of course I did...Armor All wheel cleaner works wonders in just 60 seconds!
              but since there were no rims on them, it took some time getting the water out of the inner part of the tire

                yeah, that water sat there only for couple of hours tho - got the tires pulled at noon, and you picked them up in the evening
