I had no idea that 13 mph would make such a huge difference in MPG!

With 4.30's and 32's I got about 190-200 miles per tank, now with 33's and 4.30's I get about 170 miles per tank. This is filling up at about 1/8 tank left before the light comes on. Also this reflects me driving about 70-80 mph on the interstate with a roofrack and a 33" spare on the roof. I'm about to go with 4.88's, so we'll see what that does. I have never replaced my O2 sensor, but I have replaced the maf and it made no difference.
Auto, 4.10's, SC, 285 MT/R's, and I get about 225 to 250 miles on a tank when the light first comes on.
