I upgraded from 265/70R16s to 265/75R16s and I’m really enjoying it. Finally got rid of the stock tires that came with the truck and switched to Geolandars. I’ve noticed a slight drop in mpg, maybe 1-2 mpg, but overall, I’d definitely recommend the upgrade.
I really like that color, looks awesome

Thanks! I’m really glad I managed to get this color when I did.
That looks great! What kind of mpg are you getting now compared to before?

Thanks! Before the tires, I was averaging about 18 mpg in the city and 22 mpg on the highway. I do have a Magnuson supercharger and a lift, so those could affect my mpgs a little bit!

Was that on the stock 265/70R16s? I’m asking because I’m picking up a 2022 OR on Thursday, and it had some pretty bad tires put on it during its time as a dealer loaner… Trying to figure out how much I can push it before ruining my mpgs.
@Madden
Congrats on the new truck! What color did you get? Yep, the tires were the stock OEM 265/70R16s (Canada versions). I’m currently in city traffic in CA, and it looks like the new tires are giving me around 16-17 mpg. Haven’t tried highway yet but I can let you know after I do.
@Kelby
Thanks! It’s black.
Nice color!!

Thanks! I was really happy to find this one.
I’m curious… why is it worth upgrading to these tires if it affects the mpg and makes the speedometer off by 1 mph? Other than the looks and a bit more ground clearance, what do you think makes them worth it? I’m thinking about doing the same thing on my Tacoma. Thanks!

No problem! This is the first time I’ve upgraded to a bigger tire than stock. Honestly, it’s just a personal preference for me. I do go overlanding and camping, but it’s not like I’m doing anything extreme, so I’m not expecting a huge difference in performance. Ultimately, it came down to what you mentioned—ground clearance and looks. For me, the loss of 1 mpg and the slight speedometer difference aren’t a big deal, and if I ever wanted to switch back, I could always do that.
What kind of front bumper bar is that? I like how it blends so well with the front.

It’s the Blitz Bumper from Victory 4x4. It’s a great option with minimal cutting, and you can return to stock if you ever want to.
