Anyone drive 50+miles a day with lift on 35's?
Want to lift and put 35's on my rubi. BUT I drive almost 60 miles roundtrip to work everyday. Just wondering how many people do it and if they have any problems and what kinda mpgs to expect. Thanks.

I drive 28 miles one way so just shy of 60. I'm lifted 2 inches and 32s. I get around 20 and got a speeding ticket for 77 in a 55 today so it don't hurt power. Do need to get my speedo recaled

I drove 150mi round trip a day for 5k miles, until I bought a little commuter car. I was getting 14mpg and had no issues.

I do. I have a 2008 on 35's with a OME HD lift. Ride is good and milage is about 16-18. Appends up to around 80-82 but I am in the desert. 
speed limit in some spots is 75. No issues.

Wow, thanks for the quick replies. I just don't know if I should wait until I get a little commuter car or not. I have the lift waiting in my garage, just need rims and tires. You guys def gave me something to think about. Thanks.
