Trading tires

I just posted my mud king tires over on the classifieds if any one wants to check them out. I can get pictures or if your close come by and check them out. They are 2 sizes bigger then stock and have an aggressive mud tread so I am wanting to trade for some highway tread and stock size to improve my gas mileage. I have only been getting 15 to 16 MPG and would like to up it to 18 or more if possibe and figured this would be a start.

I put Goodyear Wrangler At/D all-terrains on my 2.5L 5spd. i believe they are 30" on a 15x7 wheel. they have great road manners, traction, and they are relatively cheap, compared to other a/t's. i am getting about 18-20mpg city. you can never go wrong with the BFG all-terrain though, more expensive, but a superb tire.

Well I traded my tires today for some Kumo 245/75/16. Thats the size that is suppose to be on the truck. They have a really nice highway tread and I could tell on the drive home they they were much smother, quieter and more responsive then the Mud Kings were. Now to check the gas mileage.
