Something everyone may consider is running a fuel additive. I run Stanadyne, and I know that if I run a couple tanks without it I will loose a couple mpg's. It will drop from 16 to 14. The mileage increase more than covers the cost.

thats kinda of what it looks like to me also, the G56 is geared to low for the stock tires. Like someone said I think the 285/75 are perfect tall to get the RMPs down and skinny
