MPG Drop??

Putting some new rubber on a 08 f250 king ranch diesel. I am going from the stock 275 65 r20 Goodyear Wrangler ATS to a 35X12.50R20LT Dick Cepek Radial F-C II. How much mpg drop can I expect with this new set up.

Shouldn't be much, both AT patterns, new tires will be about 3/4" taller and 1" wider. I'd say maybe 0.5mpg difference.
