Nope, stock tires.

If you are wanting the highest possible MPG, then that is probably smart.

I think my wrangler silent armors are very quite and comfy tires, but they are a tiny bit louder then stock and most certainly increased fuel use. They also weigh more. Not sure on the wheels. These compomotives are rugged as hell, but didnt feel heavy to me. I should lookup all the numbers.

I really don't care about the highest mpg. Just annoyed with how in-accurate the computer is. But, is what it is.

I always felt like the speedo of our cars was overshooting the actual speed by a few percentage points anyway (surely for safety reasons), so upsizing tires 5% or so may actually result in a more accurate speedometer, LOL.

I have found that the LR has been fairly accurate. Now the BMW's on the other hand are always about 3 MPH faster than actual speed. That is there for your own safety!

I also find the speedo to be dead on.
Verified by radars on the side of the road and accelerometer.
With 265/65R18 it reads a little less than 3mph under the actual speed.

I just tow-dollied my Volvo 850 down the eastern seaboard and averaged about 14mpg.

I'm averaging 15MPG (based on the trip computer), with 265/65R18 Nitto Terra Grappler G2s and a FrontRunner Slimline II Full Size rack. Noticed I lost ~2MPG after fitting the rack. 2015 LR4 with 25k miles.
