Hey guys if i get bigger tires and or bigger rims how much will that affect the gas mileage...or how big can i go without affecting it too much, cuz as we all know...the mpg aint great in the X
 












awesome..how much did your lift cost...same wit the tires? did you get new rims or put the new tires on the stock rims
 






i did the torsion twist(free) but then you need a alignment(about $100). you'll need shackles(about $50). then i did a 2" bodylift..that was $116. i got my tires for $105 each..i had them on stock wheels but then i got different wheels but my stock wheels have studded snow tires that are also 31x10.50s.

but you should be able to fit 31x10.50s with no lift or just TT/shackles.
