295/70/18's Terra's are what I have. It improves the look greatly and they are much more useful offroad than the OEM's were.

I'm interested what your MPG loss is over the next few tanks, if you don't mind reporting back.

What axle ratio do you have? 3.31 or 3.55?

Do you have any rubbing issues ?

I have a leveling kit with snow plow prep springs with 35" diameter tires that rub at full lock under suspension load. It's not often, but if I drive into a bump at full lock at speed, I'll hear it rub. I'd say without a leveling kit, a 33" diameter tire is all that will fit safely, but I know a lot of guys that have Nitto Terra Grapplers in LT295/70R18 E which are 34.29" and they tell me they don't rub. I'm not so sure they don't rub a little, but what do I know?

Savage, The OEM 20" Michelins are 34.4" tall and they don't rub. So I would expect the LT295/70R18 E at 34.29" not to rub. If they do, It would have more to do with the wheel offset than the tire diameter
