No, I'm actually pulling down 20 mpg with my 88 and that's using a 10% correction factor for the 32's over the stock 28's. It should probably be around 12-13% correction but I don't want to overcorrect. I did notice a difference in the stopping distance, it takes more time and effort to slow it down. But I like the handling better with the 32's. I put on a bigger steering stabilizer to help counteract the bigger tires and my steering wheel stays smooth and straight.

Yeah I can't tell a huge difference in milage yet, but I was also coming from 31s so... I can definitely see the need for a steering stabilizer now, as the steering wheel tries to wander a lot more than it used to. As far as the stopping power, I agree with your description completely. Is there any way to help remedy this problem?

Nice looking. If I understand correctly - 32's the same as 265/75/16's? I've been looking for some pictures to give me an idea. I am getting new tires in the next few weeks and can't decide to go with 265's or 285's. I am going to be adding 2.5 inches of lift. Any thoughts? I am leaning toward 265's. Anyone want to talk me into 285's?

go with the 285/75/16! If you don't you will regret it in a week or two. Do it right the first time. Just my opinion
