Re: Height of tires ver's MPG

Summitflier has a point- I did good business rebuilding transmissions for just such truck owners. The strain created by poor gearing/tire choices ends up in the drivetrain, and the transmission usually gets beat to death. But they look cool, except for that ride on the flatbed to the shop! Matching all the alterations up to equal a reasonable final drive ratio is just mathematic work.
