Perfectly tuned. Did the lift and tires make your gas mileage worse? I drive the same truck but in blue and manual transmission. I have put a leveling kit on it, and did not see a decrease in gas mileage.
i havent exactly checked my gas mileage because i never fill my tank im too cheap its always like 15-20 bucks in the tank at a time. most likely it has gotten worse but i dont notice a difference. There is a little difference in acceleration but once up to speed its fine. The tires are pro comp 33X12.50R17 on procomp alloy rims. i personally dislike these pics i was just excited so i posted them. next time i have the camera out ill shoot better pics these look like crap. i now have tire shine so they dont look like blue haha. if interested in tires i would say go 4 wheel parts they helped me out big time gave me a killer deal. everythin plus mount and balence and tire warrenty for under $1400 plus i got a $100 rebate

I just got a set of pro comp all terrains in 35x12.5 R17 on stock rims. I do not notice any loss in power , but did want to find out if anyone has figured out the gas mileage

looks good...I installed mine about 2 weeks ago. Perfectlytuned, I didn't put the rear blocks in the back however because if I did, the back end would be higher than the front...did you put the blocks in yours?
