Yeah, if you are using your Jeep's computer to tell you the mileage, of course it's wrong. Your tires are a different size than what the computer is using to calculate mileage. Your odometer is also becoming incorrect the longer you ride without re-calibrating.

I had Jeep recalibrate mine when I got the 35's. I get 14 to 16 in town. They said they picked the largest tire the Jeep computer would allow and my speedometer is dead on with the GPS now. I guess it also has to do with the transmition picking the correct gear so that may also be part of your problem. If your jeep is in the wrong gear it’s going to affect mileage. Mine is a 2012, I have 35's and 3.73's also.

Man that's nice. Simple. 15" chrome wheels are going the way of the dodo. It's good to see some.
