Has anybody noticed decreased power/MPG by going with 235/75/15 tires
I know stock size is 225/75/15...235/75 isn't a big difference, but still wondering. Thanks for any help!

The tire width goes from 225mm to 235mm, or about 3/8" wider. The aspect ratio is 75 so you're increasing sidewall height by 7.5mm or roughly a quarter inch. Technically there is a difference but I doubt anyone could honestly say they felt a difference. Tire selection is much larger in the 235 size. Go with the 235's and don't look back.
