The factory tires are what will give you the best mileage. The difference between the 235s and the 215s in mileage is barely noticable. I run 235s usually. Right now I have 30x9.50 but am lookin to go back to 235s for winter because they handle better. The only noticable difference is the way the truck drives. Better accel. etc..
