    Really pumped that my toytec lift came in the other day. And my 33" bfg ko2. With these tires and lift what do i need to expect Tuesday when it's installed? Gas mileage? Ride quality? Etc...

    No guys, I promise their 285 lol. And @Clearwater Bill i have did tons of research on this set up. But honestly, with a that lift and those tires who cares about MPG. Looks > money

    Stacked spacer lift, 22x12 wheels with stretched 33's, tow mirrors, bull nuts.
    Looks to be spacers and pro comp shocks. I'm gonna guess the OP won't like the ride, but who knows? He apparently did a bunch of research but then wants to ask our opinions and experiences on ride quality and MPG.

    OP, you will get worse gas mileage. Ride quality probably will be stiffer than stock, but your suspension articulation will suffer.
