Lol.. from 8mpg to 7.5? I rarely drive it anymore but have always been put off by the smallish tires my dad had on it when I got it from him. I actually have no idea what the gas mileage is but at full throttle I can watch the needle go down. Not worried about that. Just want to know what...
I have a '77 K10 Heavy Half. The tires my pops put on are pretty small. They are about 10 years old now so I'm getting ready to replace them and wanted to get advice on how big I can/should go with stock suspension. Any advice greatly appreciated.
