295/65/20 or 35's only $3.00 difference

[brantner22]

Ok everyone. Like the title says I'm getting a wheel and tire package but I don't know weather to get 295/65/20 or 35/12.50/20. Both are Nitto Trail Grapplers already mounted and balance on the same wheel I want. There is only a $3.00 difference between the two. I know my gas mileage is going to go down with either tire, but I heard there's a big difference between the two in mileage and size.

Does anyone have pics of their 3rd Gen leveled with either tire? If I see pics of both on leveled 3rd Gens maybe I can decide that way.

Thanks for any help guys and gals!

The only real difference is the tire width. Everything else won't be noticeable. The weight issue I can't comment on.

Bluesmoke91- Thanks for the info. It helped me realize there wasn't much difference. Thanks ago for the help!!

Less width does provide less rolling resistance which in theory will get better gas mileage. But at 35s... Will you tell? Probably not a lot. Unless you drive like a grandma like me

I have 285/75/17 on my truck ~34"
I was driving about 2,000-2,500 miles a month
I wish I had gone with the wider tire now
