Default Lift and tires=mpg??

Hi,

Im thinking about lifting my 98 cherokee. However im not sure how it would look. Im thinking about a 3in lift with 31in tires. Im also wondering what it would do to my mpgs.Post up a picture of your lifted xj and what mpg you get, like city and highway.

Thanks,

Dirtbiker525

Whenever you lift your car and put bigger tires on it, you'll see a drop in mileage. Unless you regear. I have stock gears, 5 inch lift and 33" tires and get about 11 mpg. Haha but my cat is clogged and a few other things are wrong
