Default 4.5 aev with 37's mpg

Hey everyone, was looking to step up to a 4.5 inch aev lift and some 37" MT/r's from a 2.5 35" setup. I have a 2009 auto JKU and was curious what gear setup other jku's were running with the same lift/tires set up. And if you could also include your mpg that'd be great. It's mostly a weekend off road vehicle and the occasional once or twice week trip, any other time it's my DD.

So in reality we should be about the same. How are you on the throttle?
