being a jeep guy (90 cherokee, yes i'm gonna get a cummins as soon as i get the money...poor college kid) this question is asked all the time, and yea, it'll affect your milage, AND ur speedometer is going to be off (i go by 10%). I went from about 29's to 32's. Long story short, yea, i'm pretty sure it'll lower your milage.

I went from 245/75R16 to 265/70R17. I would think for a cummins it wouldnt make a big difference in taking off but when your cruising its less rotations to equal what you used to, so I'd see better milage when your cruising. But either way I doubt it drops the cummins more than a few mpg

I am running a 3" kit up front and 35X12.50 R17, with a 10" wide wheel I rub at the locks. I found that you will rubif wheels wider that 8" are used. Because of this I was able to sell my wife on a 6" superlift for my ride. Will post pics after complete.
