Prerunner gas mileage with 285's -33's

what kind of gas mileage does everybody get with 285's - 33's or how many miles to a tank if anybody keeps up with it????

 

I average 16 MPG with mine, I dont drive fast and I try and keep my RPM's around 2k
I can normally get 290-310 miles a tank before my light comes on

 

with 33's i was getting 290ish when my light would come on, now with 35's i'm about 260ish when the light comes on

 

are you looking for v6 people to answer or I-4 peoples?

 

he has a 4.0 so probably that..

 

^ good point kevin. just realized that haha

 

I run 32x11x18s on lifted access cab with 4 cyl 5spd and get right under 20mpg if I drive nice - 16 or 17 if not

 

i forgot the world doesnt revolve just around 4 banger tacomas!

 

looking for v6 im wanting to put some 33s on my truck but all i mainly drive is interstate and i dont wanna kill my gas mileage to bad right now i get about 350 to a tank but my truck is stock now

 

its not only the tire size but you also have to take into account the weight of the wheel and tire. more weight=more rotational mass

people running a certain brand 33 with a certain wheel might have more/less weight than another persons setup

 

When I went up to 265/70/17 my mpg was cut down by two, I am going up to 285/70/17 and am expecting another 1-2 mpg drop from those, considering they weigh 20 lbs more per tire than stock.

 

well that aint to bad then

 

.

 

actualy that is not good if your driving mostly highway, thats 4mpg diff from stock. Ive thought about downsizing to 275's to gain a few more mpg's

 

Yea, I don't think it's good either, but I keep accurate records after every fill up and that's what I get, mix 80% hwy 20% street.

Just trying to give a realistic expectation of what to expect, as I hear some people with 33"s claim no change and some with 35"s claim 1-2 mpg change, which I think is complete BS.

 

yea total BS, they think its a competition and it will make their peens bigger

I only had my truck for a week before my lift and tires so I have no clue what I got before the mods

 

also keep in mind your odometer will be off... so you actually go farther than it says

 

yeah theres no way people are getting the same gas mileage with 33's they are way heavier than stock tires

 

stock i averaged 20mpg, 6" lift and 33's i went to 17 and now i'm at like 15 with 35's
