I just put 315/70 R17 on my 13 2500 on stock wheels, looks and fits great. I do have a 3" lift but they would of fit without it.

I'm running Load Range E 295 70 17, mileage has also gone down since upgrading from the 265 70 17's

I just put 285 Cooper STTs on my 12 3500 and the mileage went straight in the shytter. They do look better than the stock Firestone 265s... Especially with level kit n airbags...

i have 11 3500 single wheel short box 2" leveling with 35" (315 70 17) tires and my milage has dropped from 16 liters per 100 to about 21 when emty.I realize tire size change means the odmeter is out thus milage is off also but really 10.9 liter per 100 the only way i could get close to that even with stock tires is drive down hill with tail wind everywhere. Does a programmer and exhaust help that much

Mine made a huge difference. With summer fuel and little idle time I was averaging 13.5 l per 100 km. I traded it in and got a new hemi that is getting 16l per 100 km on stock tires with the same driving.

Now with that said I did kill my head gasket.

Im getting the same as summitric on my '09 2500 with 285/70R17's. Before i did the deletes and put the mini maxx in, the best i could get was about 900kms to a tank on the highway.....driving around town, i would get 750-800

over a 1100kms / 128lgallon tank = 12.8l/100kms .......... Or ....... 683.51 miles / 34 gallons = 20.1mpg ....... Not bad?

Actually, it would be closer to 11.5L/100km because your tank isn't bone dry :)

And I had a brain fart and was thinking you had a gas jobbie so :doh:

Check your #s Ric as you are getting better than 20.1
More like 24.28
128 L = 28.15 Imperial Gallons

I just bought a 2010 3500 SRW bone stock, 650km to a tank of fuel, pretty crappy. The options list on the truck says *5.5 GAL additional. Definitely need better Mpg. Is the H&S the be all end all deal? or is there others that will net similar results? The truck has 33's on it right now as well.
