    I think you'd be happier just removing the body lift and stepping down to some 265-70/17s. A buddy of mine had a 2006 access cab 4 banger 5 speed lifted with 265-70/17s and he got 22mpgs and the truck still looked great.

    Just know that people won't take you seriously. Being flaky and indecisive isn't a good quality.

    Whats the truck got now? Might as well roll as is instead of dropping it the more i think about it .. gas savings versus the kit may be negligiable depnding on miles driven.

    You won't see that much of a lost running 33s. It's not the tire size. But more of the load range of the tire that makes it suck gas. So You can run 33s with a B load and won't hurt your mpg. Vs running an E load that will kill your mpg.
    I use to get 350 miles per tank running 305/75/16 load range B vs my 285/75/16 load E that gets me 225 miles
