295/70/18 and MPG

[GeauxCrush]

Just curious if anyone has put 295’s on their 2019+ 2500. If so, how much did your MPG drop? I’m wondering if the 8 speed will lessen the fuel economy drop going from 275/70/18 to 295/70/18.

I’m specifically looking at Mastercraft CXT’s which are about 34.6” and 61 lbs.

How will they fit? I would love to get a 295/65/18 but can’t seem to find anyone but Goodyear building them.

I put on some 295/70/18's on a 18X9 +18 Method wheel. I'm going out to the desert this weekend with the camper so I'll have an idea of the fuel mileage change. The stock wheels and tires are pretty heavy so I'm guessing it shouldn't be too bad of a drop.

Awesome, that will be a great comparison.
