Default MPG with 4-5 inches of lift and 35 inch tires?
Those of you that have the 5.7 Hemi and have 4-5 inches of lift with 35 inch tires. What kind of MPG are you getting?

Thanks

You can't trust the overhead. It lies. You have to hand calculate what it is.

A key is a key, you'll be fine with the Top Gunz. Personally, I'd put the keys on and use the bolts to give about a 2" lift as opposed to the max 2.5", that last half inch is hell on the CV angle.
