Caltom, Did you notice a difference in fuel mileage with 285/75/17 vs stock tires?

I went with the Nitto 295/70/17 when I got new tires in May, they are very quiet. I was also considering the Toyo 285/75/17, but I could'nt get a definate answer on "no rubbing without the level kit". The 295's were around $900, and the 285/75's were going to be $1000. Good luck

285/75/17 Toyos

No rubbing at all.Plently of space. Running them on stock rims with out level kit. The look good so far. About 5k on them. Paid $900 including everything. You won't regret it.
