1500 AT4s. Lets see them!

OEM 18's and Black Badges
Really dumb question I know…but how badly did your 285’s kill the mileage. I bought my LZO to improve over my TrailBoss w/6.2 on 275/70’s. Told myself I’d just leave it as is but the 285’s look really good on yours.

I also have 285/70R18s on mine, toyo at3s on the stock wheels powder coated satin black. I didn't have the truck long before I swapped but i'd say its a 2-3 mpg hit from the stock territory MTs. Much more quiet ride though and I still get 22-23mpg back and forth to work with the LZ0 on mostly backroads, getting around 15mpg pulling a 4.5k lb boat. Didn't notice any different throttle response between the tires.

They do look good. I think as I get older somehow I’m becoming more responsible! I just don’t want to mess up my mileage…the reason I got the LZO in the first place!

I noticed a 1-2 mpg loss, at most.. Still seeing 24-26 mpg average on my usual daily driving. -County Backroads.

Does anyone have this setup with the 6.2L gasser? Wondering if I'm going to see single digit MPGs if I do this.

I have that exact tire size on my 23 AT4X with the 6.2. You won't see single digits unless pulling a bigger trailer at hwy speeds. If I am just using my truck as a driver, I can get 15 to 16 avg. I do live in Montana, so I do travel some hilly/mountainous roads here, so that can effect MPG. Snow/winter conditions and winter temps will take it's toll also. But in non-winter conditions and if not fighting strong winds, normal driving 15 to 16 is about where my truck lands when just using it as a driver. My lifetime MPG takes a hit as I pull a large 16' enclosed trailer with tall ladder racks full of ladders on top, but normal driving the hit wasn't too bad. I don't step into the 6.2 a lot, even though it is a strong engine and fun to step in to, I just don't want to take the MPG hit.

Thank you! I currently average 16-17mpg on my stock 6.2L so it sounds like 1mpg impact.
 

Hello fellow AT4 junkies.

Joined earlier today, will be sharing some photos soon. I haven’t really taken pictures of my truck since I picked it up in February. Unfortunately, the truck is in the shop, but I should have it back early next week.

Until then, I’ve got lots of reading to do! Some mild mods planned in the near future and there are lots of good resources tucked away in these threads.
 

Here is mine.
