How's the ride quality and performance of the RG's vs the AT III's? Have you noticed any difference in MPG's? I think I'm sold on the 35x11.5 Ridge Grapplers but I'd like to hear your opinion on how they compare.
And I forgot to mention that the RG has much better traction on wet pavement than the AT III’s do

No rubbing. I had 35x12.50's before and they rubbed the UCA's. Thats why I went with 11.50's this time around.

I'm sold on the 35x11.5 Ridge Grapplers. I'm impressed they lasted 76k miles. Your MPG sounds low to me for your newer 3.5L Ecoboost. My 2011 3.5L eco gets 16.5 average MPG city driving. I thought that new 10 speed transmission would make a big difference. I've got 3.55 gears and a 6.5ft bed on my 4x4 screw so it's about as heavy as a F150 can get, minus the 5.O. I'm glad to hear the Ridge Grapplers have good wet traction. I figured the AT III's would have better wet traction because they're snow rated.

Keep in mind my mileage is for the entire life of the truck. So that includes towing a 18’ flatbed trailer with a SXS and a 4 wheeler every weekend during hunting season along with a mixture of city and Highway. I also sit in my truck with it running idle a good bit for work. So it’s a total mixture of driving

Do you think if I keep my stock rims (+44 offset) with a 2" level I could fit these?

Yes, I have a 3 inch lift on my 2011 F150 and the 35x11.50 RG's fit no problem, just had minor rubbing on the inner fender well which is easily trimmed.
