Here are some pics of the oversized P275/60R17 Goodyear GT2's they are much wider where they touch the ground. (Stock was P225/55R17) They fill out the fenders much better and do not rub. The wheels are stock from the factory 17x9.5 front and rear.

Gas Mileage? Well when you have a huge Engine with lots of thirsty cylinders it tends to be a bit on the short side. Showing off dosen't help it either.
MadMercuryMike's 2000 Dodge Dakota R/T This is actually pretty good for around town. Yes 11.5 MPG is good.

Here are some night shots.

Engine shots and dyno sheet. Other than exhaust only mods are 180 degree thermostat, and MSD fuel injectors, but don't let the plain white wrapper fool you it's pushin' 282.7 FOOTPOUNDS OF TORQUE AT THE WHEELS AND THAT WAS WITH A BAD WATER PUMP DIDN'T KNOW AT THE TIME BUT IT HELD TOGHETHER DURING THE DYNO RUN BUT SHE WASN'T 100% YOU COULD FEEL IT WHICH IS WHY IT ONLY PUT OUT 192.2 HORSEPOWER
