^^^yep, i understand if there were recent threads about a question, and alot of the time your specific answer has been answered in another thread, but most of the time it's hidden in a lot of jibberish of peeps trying to hijack threads...but that's pretty funny in itself too...
as far as mileage, i dont know with 31's, with 32's i'd average 16-17mpg, didn't matter city or highway as i drive like a maniac anyways...now with 33's maybe less???my odometer is all out of whack now...with my 32's, i'd get ~320 miles from a full tank (light on for ~30 miles) now i get 320 before the light would even turn on...
is there some sort of formula i could use to see how much my odo is off? i'd like to know how fast i'm really going when my speedo says 65, etc....

Do a search on gas mileage... You'll find a whole bunch of responses. Just got done doing my search, and I wound up at a consumer report website! Pretty damn happy w/ what I found too <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/notooth.gif" alt="" />! There ain't much to say about the ol' T-100 except that I would LOVE to own one! It sounds like a well rounded and solid ride! Plus, I am sold on the 3.4 liter with a 5 speed manual tranny! <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/kewl.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/kewl.gif" alt="" /> That's exactly what I'm looking for! As for the gas mileage--didn't mean to bug ya BTW--it's about the same as what I'm driving now, so nothing lost! <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/pfft.gif" alt="" /> Thanks for the nice responses! <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/cheers.gif" alt="" /> -kuso <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/shiner.gif" alt="" />

As long as it comes from the land of the rising son, it can't be bad, right guys? <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/drunk.gif" alt="" />
I "settled" for a sweet Taco. My search started with a T though. Either way, you can't go wrong. All depends on your "application".

i was wondering when someone would tell me that...
is my thinking right here...if i can find the percentage of the increase of tire height, could i apply that to the percentage of the speedo?

4lo.com has several great calculators for figuring tire size vs. speedo readings, gear changes, etc. I wasn't able to access their site today, so here's another calculator link - Tire Calculator. Hope these sites can answer your questions -

You could help tip the scales of decisiveness and help plant my in a new BEAST!! I guess this little dream won't be coming true until next year. Decided to pay off the ol' '91 and build it up to something respectable before Poor Red 'n I part ways. Thanx for all the great info, though! Overall, I think I'd be happier w/ a nice 'n shiny Taco! <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/pfft.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/pfft.gif" alt="" /> Gonna have to figure all this mess out before going back to school! -kuso <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/shiner.gif" alt="" />
