Pleasant MPG improvements!

Thought that i would share that After switching from factory 20" rims on pirelli scorpions (appx 32" D) to 35" BFG MT's on 17" rims I have seen a noticable mpg improvement electronically.

I know that the odometer will be off... but the number it is giving me should still be an underestimation to what I am getting.

I will keep everyone updated as I continue to drive on them more, but I was cirtainly not expecting to gain ANY mileage even by decreasing rim diameter by 3"
