Re: How bad will this kill my mpg?
don't know which T you have but you should plan on getting between 10 and 14 mpg based on your axle ratio and driving style.

Dude, what in the world are you doing? You must be driving 100+mph on the hwy to get that bad of mileage with stock tires. I have a 4wd and get high teens on the hwy with my 265's.

Re: How bad will this kill my mpg?
If gas mileage is a concern a Titan on 35's isn't the way to go.
