well, 3 of my 4 tires arrived today - the other one should be here tomorrow. Took a break from work and went home to check them out. THEY ARE FRIGGIN HUGE! All of a sudden I'm much more concerned about fitting/rubbing than I was a few hours ago. Here are some preliminary pics (click for bigger images)...





And a very rough comparison to my 32/11.5-15 Dueler ATs

How will those affect fuel efficiency??
They will drop my MPG slightly in town, but increase it slightly on the highway. The difference should only be about 1mpg either way - pretty insignificant.

His speedometer and odometer are both going to be off too unless he gets one of those ratio adjuster things.
They have been off for the last 50k miles - I'm not about to start worrying about that now.

yea... I've already got a 3" suspension lift to clear my current tires (32s)... but I'll need a small body lift to clear these. 1" should do it, that and some time with a big friggin hammer.
