I had the kit installed for about a month before I changed the stock tires and the fuel economy was barely changed. The tires are what made the loss in fuel economy. The extra ground clearance and traction is all worth it.

 

 

Geez, I didn't think the tires would make THAT much of a difference. I really want those tires too!
