Stock, I was getting about 19 mpg.
(2dr Rubicon = 32" tires and 4:10 gears)

Now, with 2.5" BB and 35's I get usually just under 17 mpg.
However, I also have a CAI, TBS, and exhaust, as well as Hypertech programming.

Just got lift and wheels and tires. Same driving route (mix city and freeway), 1 tank gas before and after (after with pro cal adjustment), divided miles by gals.

Stock - 17.x MPG
Lifted 2.5 TF coils and 35's - 15.x mpg

Lost 2 mpg.
