Tightened down my passenger seat bolts. No more squeaking... yet.
Also filled her up so I can get an idea of where my m.p.g. sits now with these tires on.

May God help whoever is near Gage if his MPG drops due to the new tires....

Gotta get a good average going since I'm going to try the Premium fuel setting on my Hypertech a while after we switch back to Spring gas. Gonna compare the two and mpg will be what I'm looking at. The first 80 miles still looks good. Not a drastic change noticed yet.

No way. We don't get enough snow for those to be necessary. This Winter, maybe, but you know how are Winters are on the East coast.

We're completely hit or miss. Some years we get destroyed, others we don't get any. But you don't need snow, they still look good when it's 80* out as sunny

Happy with my purchase so far. The KK should have came with better tires.

Went to the dealer again to pick up my Kk and it's fresh transmission only to have it still leaking and now throwing codes for the over drive.... The new transmission has problems...

What the heck?? Can you take it to a different dealer? Why would they have you pick it up without testing it first.

Tell them it better be fixed by next Saturday or you'll demand some major compensation!

They're more aggressive so they tend to impact mileage more. It seems that most people who run them took a hit in mileage. Granted a lot has to do with the lift and larger tires, but some who ran stock sizes saw a difference. I'd say they have 1 of the most aggressive tread patterns for all terrains, so economy isn't exactly expected lol.

lfhoward · **Posted:** Thu Mar 06, 2014 12:23 am

Part of it is they're heavier. The 245/75/16 load range C are about the same weight as 225/75/16 load range E, so either way mileage takes a hit.

I think gage is actually running dura's at the stock tire size

It's hard to tell them I want major compensation when I'm not paying for any of the parts, work, or rental I just don't have much to say I need paid for

Nah, he has stock size BFG all terrains. I know a guy on Jeepforum is running stock size duratracs. I forgot his name though.
