    so i have AC 2012 barcelona txbaja
    i dont do much offroading, say that first.
    i have a pelfrey steel full hoop bumper all new powder coating SPC uppers 886 coils on 5100s beadlock baja wheels sliders

    im going to 255-85-16 because my stocks look funny and are shot.

    question is should i put my stock bumper back on and sell the pelfrey for some extra money, then through on some 887 coils or just keep the bumper on here with the new tires etc.

    im thinking MPG savings (weight) with the limited offroad usage but on the same hand bumper is sexy and if i were to smack a deer def do more damage with stock bumper

    Depends on what is the most important thing to you. Looks or a little better MPG?

    I personally would keep the pelftey bumper. l don't think the MPG loss with it is that great. But l could be wrong.
    You like the looks of it so keep it. Just get the bigger tires and enjoy.
