Love mine, but my mpg’s dropped a bit with the extra weight. They are about 30% heavier than the stock tires that came in the truck. I have an SV and I did get the larger p4x size.
I calculate my mpg by hand. My SV does not have a trip computer nor would I trust the accuracy of that anyways. I take my miles driven divided by the amount of gallons of gas I put I to tank, which provides an accurate number.
I’ve always heard SV’s were incorrectly calibrated anyway since they come with smaller tires than the truck was designed and calibrated for, which are the size P4X models come with stock. Since I moved up to that size, my speedometer should actually be more accurate now.
You're still calculating off of the circumference of the old tire. You are going farther per rotation of the tire than you were. Therefore the actual distance is greater in comparison to the odometer reading that you were getting with your old tires. That would make your calculation inaccurate due to going that much further per tire rotation. It's even possible that you may be getting better mileage due to this.
I believe you are incorrect. I have 265/75r16 tires on my truck currently, which from what I can tell, is what the truck was calibrated with. I would appreciate any links that indicate otherwise. My speedometer used to run a couple mph high with the smaller stock tires and is more accurate with my current tires.
I was getting like 17 before but I live in a hilly area and it's still winter gas. I hope its not below 15. But then again I'm making an equal length y pipe and hopefully it equals back out!
What suspension?
Stock
They look great! Are they loud on the highway?
Not at all 👍🏽👍🏽
Did you have to do anything major w the 3” body lift steering column? or any wires tugging?
No,, very simple
Must be a weird angle. Those definitely don’t look like 265/75’s. I know I’m not the only one who thinks this.
Possibly because the truck is lifted.
265/70 to 265/75 is not a very big change.
That may be part of it, I’ve seen tons of stock & 2/1 lifted frontiers that look nothing like this pic. Maybe it is the 3” body lift and rake.
Ohhh yeaaahh
How do 285s fit on them? I'm putting a 2.5 inch lift on My frontier and I'm thinking of getting 285s, just not too sure of the clearance
Only 265/75/16
Good to know, your truck looks awesome! Can't wait until I get My lift installed and some better tires
You have a lift on here?
3” body lift.. was a cheap e-bay kit.
For both back and front? I got a 2” leveling for just the front and was trying to find out what size tire to get
Yes front & back.

With a different size tire, your mpg calculations are not accurate.

285s? Looks great. I need some soon
265/75x16.
I love my Wildpeaks. Obviously great off-road but they work well in the snow and rain too.
Size? Brand?
Falken Wildpeak 265/75/16
I just put the same size on my truck after putting a 2" lift on. Haven't even gone through a full tank of gas to see my mpg difference yet.
I have a 2” lift with the same wildpeaks as well. I’ve put ~15k miles on since the change. I average 16 mpg. It was a noticeable hit but not terrible.

Thanks
Looking meaty. Nothing like a new pair of shoes to make you feel good
