I didn't do any pre lift and tire mpg testing. So could someone help me and give me an idea of what I should be getting post lift? |

Mine lost about 3 - however 1 of that is just the mileage correction factor for the larger tires - so 2 if you correct for tire size. It will also be worse on intown driving - the MTR's are ~50lbs/tire vs ~23 for stock so there's a lot more energy required to start and stop them. They are great offroad. |

I added the OME lift and 235/75/16s (less than 5# heavier than stock tires) and my Odometer is 6% off. After corrections I get AT LEAST 20.5mpg city and AT LEAST 27mpg hwy(keeping rpm under 2000) |
