Lift/Tires and Fuel Mileage
I have an 08 X w/ manual tranny w/ 3.73 gears and I get ~19mpg currently(city/highway mix). I was toying around with the idea of getting the OME 2" lift down the road. I would go with 33" tires I think and keep stock gearing. I am a little worried about how this would worsen my mpg since I commute w/ my JK. If I don't go with that then I'll just swap my tires for 265/75R16s w/ no lift.
