    I knew I had the front one. Never been under an off road to see the difference.

    Your tires are most likely the problem.

    Yeah I was thinking that. Too bad cause I really like these tires too just not the mpg. Do you guys think going to the load c duratracs would help. I know there a more aggressive tread pattern but there a load c and only 46lbs a tire compared to my tires now that are load e 54 lbs? I might need to switch.

    Miguel I'd recommend you get some stock wheels with tires to run when you aren't in the mud. You'll get much better gas mileage. That's what I'm gunna do with the Hankooks when I get them from Rob. Just a shitty set of steelies to beat up on the trail.

    If they're sick and won't eat, give them some cooked and cooled white rice and boiled chicken. It will help settle their stomach. Once they start eating again, use white rice and slowly start mixing in their dry food.

    Sorry! :eek:

    If it makes you feel any better, they'd look tiny on your 3" lift.

    Its ok. Np. They would look small on my lift but I wouldnt care. I just cant beleive how much these tires are affecting my mpg:eek: I can really see a huge difference. I can watch my gas gauge just go down and down. Do you think if the tires are over aired that could be a problem? They look to have to much air in them.

    No they're totally healthy but they're sad because my girlfriend left for Italy on Thursday and they think that she left them forever. They'll get back on their feed soon though!

    Thanks for the advice in any event!

    See what the manufacturer recommends and air accordingly. I think they're just really aggressive for what you need. You use them off road how often? Once a week if you're lucky... The other 6 days you are throwing your money away on gas. I'd go with the second set of stupidly small looking tires lol.
