Will it make a difference

I am currently running Mazzi 20x10 Hulks with Nitto TG 305/55/20's. Will switching back to the stock 17's and running a 285, 295, or 305 give me back any mpg's? I like the look I have but I'll go back to if I can make some mpg back up by switching. Thanks!

Thanks for the reply...I love the wheels and they look great on the truck. I am getting tired of all the grime that gets slung all over the truck. So, I figure I'm gonna try to find someone local and see if they want to trade their stock aluminums with 285's or better for mine. Was just hoping maybe it might improve my mpg's as well.

Thanks for the offer but I'd rather not get into shipping and would prefer to just trade locally.

mannnnn I would trade you my stock ones in a heartbeat if I wasnt here in Iraq, I live in Killeen but my best friends all live in Houston so I am always down there. Those are the exact wheels I want to....I wish we could work something out though. I will pay to have my wheels shipped from my parents house in Florida or something...whatever it takes...

Looks like I found someone local with stockers and BFG's...

Thanks for the replies. If for some reason something doesn't go through local I'll possibly entertain the idea of shipping.

Thanks!
