    Adding rotational mass to a vehicle (going to a lrarger tire, for example), puts more load on an engine/drive train than anything else. Re gearing increases the leverage the drive train has over the larger tires, thus reducing the amount of work needed to get the vehicle rolling, thus returning better mpg. Every vehicle that I have re geared, has returned better mpg, and better performance.
