285’s and MPG?

[Rogue-Runner]

I'm running TRD Bilstein suspension with 2/1.5 CF and airlift on 285 RGs. At first, my avg dropped from right around 17 to just under 14. Granted, I spent more time off road in the summer after the mods. A lot depends on your driving style. I started driving more economically (slower speeds/acceleration, avoiding braking when possible, taking routes to avoid inclines, harder turns, and squeaking past more close red lights than I care to admit). It became sort of fun like building stats on a video game. Anyways, even with the mods it settled at 18.9 combined. I really wanted to maintain 19. After a few months I relaxed a bit, but learned a few tricks. Now I'm at 17 again.

I have never heard of these before but have seen that weird treat pattern.

How do they perform?

Looks like they'd be prone to some chunking and weaving behavior on road.

Lite Brite and TrailRecon run them as well and both like them.

Wildpeak AT3W in 285/70r17. Bilstein 5100s, Dobinsons 302/505 springs (2.5"/1.5"). Full Aluminum RCI skids, RSG rock sliders, Prinsu Full length roof rack, Gobi ladder (don't think this would affect mpg but I guess it's worth mentioning.

I get 16.5 MPG average, around 14.5 with my roof top tent mounted.
