I am running around 2200 at 70 with 456 gears and 35s I would always go lower just in case you can always comp it with bigger tires.

Here's a gear chart from quadratec.com

And for RPM at highway speeds, I haven't paid attention. I was averaging 22 MPGs after a 25 Mile trip at ~65 MPH, according to the Edge programmer.
How do you average 22 mpg I get about 13 to 14

I have the edge programmer and the mpgs on the computer never add up to what I am actually getting on the trip odometer. I was getting 13-14 with my 41s during the summer just with 3.73 gears. I am hoping 4.88 or 5.13s will put me closer to 18.
