I have Toyo mt in 33x12.5 now. If I was to get a 35" at tire how much will that hurt compared to a 35" mt. Or if I stay at 33" and get an at tire will I gain any MPG?

Thanks just trying to weigh options.

Probably won't notice much of a difference to be honest. The biggest factor (besides size) is the weight of the tire. Usually M/T's are heavier than an A/T but to give you an example, I have 33" Cooper STT M/T's on my truck now that weigh about 65lbs each, and I was looking at a 35" BFG A/T that also weighed 65lbs each so it will probably all equal out in the end. Now if you went with a 33" A/T vs. a 33" M/T you might shed a little weight, maybe 10lbs or so, but not enough to really notice a huge jump in MPG's. Hope that helps.

To the op, I would say maybe 1 mpg less. I had 285/70/17 (32.8) and went to 315/70/17 (34.4) and lost about 1 mpg. The look of the bigger tires is well worth it in my opinion. Still get around 14.5 to 15.

Hey man, what kind of mpg were you getting with the 285/70/17 ? were they all-terrains or grips? anything else done to your truck that affected that MPG with those tire?

Around 16. I have intake, exhaust and programer. I also drive pretty conservatively. 3.55 gears for now. Hoping to get them changed to 4.56 within a couple weeks. They do fine except when towing. Truck isn't my daily driver so the 4.56 should be good. They were nitto terra grapplers.
285 top, 315 bottom

I've got 33x12.5x18 now. Getting a little over 15 MPG with toyo mts. They weight 75 lb, looking for at tire like big that weight about 10 lbs less. Even if I got 35s in at they are still 8 lbs less.
