Higher gas milage??
I just happened to think that with these taller tires the milage that is shown on the trip meter is actually less than the milage driven be cause the meter is calibated for the stock tire size, right? If this is the case y gas milage should be slightly higher, or am I thinking backwards. Just for info I am getting right at 10 MPG around town. I am running 315/75/16 .Stock size is like 265/75/16Any thoughts??

RE: Higher gas milage??
This was my thought as well, I'm picking up my 98 Ram 1500 this Saturday, and I know the wheels/tires are different. Using my Garmin Legend is my only means of telling speed since all of the gauges (but not the dummy lights) aren't working. If cleaning the grounds and changing fuses doesn't fix it, all I'll have is my GPS.
There's always the option of getting on a four-lane road with a friend/family member, and having them match speeds with you, to see exactly how far off it is.

I found out mine wasout by using my hand held gps. At 100 km/h I was actually doing 110 km/h.Stock is 235-75-16 and I brought the truck with 275-75-16. The stealership corrected it for $50.
