Tire size
I went wih the 4" lift and 35 x 12.5 x 18 for tires. I have seen 3 to 4 MPG loss and a little less on take off. I mainly ket it to a 4" lift because I have an Artic Fox camper with slide and the 4" lift means I have to lift it all that much higher. The tires do ride a lot better with the load. You may also want to consider front wheel bearing wear and ball joint ware with the larger tires. I just replaced mine after 136,000 miles. Bigger tires do mean more wear, but also gives you a reason to go with the Dynatrac system. With the 6" lift you can also change the front and rear over to a coil spring/link system. Just depends on how much free $$$ you have laying around. Also 37" tires cost more than 35" tires. Well that is my .02$
