Bald 265/75 BFG AT's before, aggressive Nitto Trail Grapplers in 285/75. I figured that was about right in mpg drop. I'm also sitting a lot higher than before.. Doesn't really bother me much. I gladly sacrifice 3 mpg's for the gnarly stance, ground clearance and traction.

Did you use a correction factor for tire size or a measured distance? I've never done better than 10.5 (245/70/16's) and at some point need to figure out whats wrong.

Distance. Miles per tank x3 (measured 3x and average of results). Remember, I'm running off a fresh rebuild/stroker. I'm sure as she tires out, she'll drop in mpg's but for now I'm happy with my numbers
