Default fuel economy on 35in rubber
Hi All

Just wanting to know what sort of fuel economy you are all getting on 35's i seem to be around 19lt per 100 and I'm driving as gentle as possible. this is on normal roads and speeds between 70-80 kph.

I've got a JKU auto 3.6.
Has a 3.5" lift and 35" tyres with bar, winch and spotties etc.

When the conversion was done, the fuel economy was sitting on around 17/100kms.
After using the procal and getting the speedo and trip meter reading correctly, it has now dropped to around 14/100kms which seems believable.

If you haven't changed your speedo though, you won't be able to get a correct reading.
