    I didn't have the stock wheels/tires on long enough to know what kind of mileage they got. But so far the 275s are not impressing me in the MPG category. I'm averaging about 17MPG in mixed conditions (typically lots of rush hour traffic).

    I'm still on my first tank, but my tank average is 15, and I'm 100% stock. That's like 95% city.

    That's not bad at all. I'm hoping mine is due to being new and running winter gas.

    Here is mine on 275/70/17E. I feel like I drive to much for this E rated tire. Should have probably done a 265/70/17C if anyone is in So. Cal and wants to trade their 265 KO2's for my 275's. They have a little over 3k miles on them.

    The e-rated tires do kinda big the truck down somewhat I have noticed. The reason I could justify the heavy ass tires and added fuel cost is due to me only driving 2 miles each way to work everyday

    Yeah I agree. If I didn't drive much I wouldn't mind them at all.

    Icon Stage 1 installed today a 4086mi. Pics taken at Firestone to get their lifetime alignment. Love it. Sits just about dead level.

    I think about 1.75" up front. I'll post measurements soon.

    A little firmer at low speeds but once you punch it with this kit. The bumps, road imperfections are unnoticeable.

    I had these on my 4runner before trading it in and I can't say enough good things about them. They're a lot cheaper than the BFGs as well and I consider General a great tire company. I'll probably buy another set when the stock ones on my third gen wear out, or I might go with the original grabbers

    I put a set of 265/70/17s Grabber AT2s on my truck and I love them so far! Nothing but great things to say about them, at 75mph they do get a slight hum to them but I don't mind.
