I like where your head is at. Stickin it to the Man. Just don't get caught out in a school zone.

That Base looks amazing with those wheels btw 👍

Yes the mileage will be 11% less now and progressively lower as the rubber wears.

See that’s what I was thinking or am I missing something just deal with Speedo off and move on right? Huge change to the truck with new wheels crazy that a factory truck u can run 35 s with no mods only crash bar removed. I have a 2014 keep wrangler 2 door and had to a 1 inch wheel spacers to run 33 s

I just always make sure never to go over the speed limit on my speedometer....or you will really really be going over the speed limit.
Yeah its win win, just don't tell anyone what you did....and for sure don't post it on a forum....

I believe the difference in speed changes as your actual speed changes. So I don't think it will be consistently 11% difference
