    im pretty sure that your gas mileage wont change that much, with the larger tires you cruise at a lower rpm than with factory tires, its just city driving that really kills the mileage with oversized tires

    now for the noise and tire wear.. well not much argument there.. stock will be much better for that.. loosing the roof rack will probably help a bit for noise and mpg though

    Sheewwwww, crisis over, I don't know what I would have done either. I could have put the factory wheels and tires back on my expy for my 6K mile trip to moab and back, saved a few hundred bucks in gas plus a few hundred in rubber. But damn, those tires and wheels look way cooler than factory.
