I am currently running Cooper 315 on stock gears. I am getting between 23 and 25 mpg every day. I am having zero problems with power and only drop into 7th gear on some hills on the freeway. I am never at a loss for power. As soon as my current set of tires wear out I am going to get 37 inch tires.

2022 EcoDiesel - JKS 3.5" J-Krawl kit with 35x12.50 17 Mickey Thompson Baja Boss AT.
MPG - Mixed highway and city driving 21mpg ( I drive 75mph on average and live where it's never flat) Best MPG is 26mpg doing 55mph through Yellowstone NP in the summer. The ride is incredibly nice. In the future I might go with a set of Fox 2.5 DSC shocks tuned by Accutune because I really enjoy desert running and would want the adjustability.
Suspension Lift on my Rubicon was about 3" Front and 1.5" Rear.

2021 Willys EcoD, Diesel-specific Mopar Lift (settled in around 3").
35" Mickey Thompson Baja Boss M/Ts just *barely* fit in the wheel wells at full twist, and rubbed at full lock on the stock Front Lower Control Arms even with the lower backspacing of the Mopar Beadlock wheels. (note that the Willys has the 'narrow' version of the Dana 44s.)
the transmission does a fabulous job of handing the change in tire sizes, but the fact that it's doing more work is apparent in 4Lo when it shifts. 4.10s in the difs would have compensated for the change from the factory 32s perfectly, and that shifting difference might not be as obvious in 4Lo with the 4:1 Lo of a Rubicon TCase.
MPG:
~low 20s in typical mixed driving with stock gearing, worse at speeds 70 and above.
changed some stuff and put 37s on it recently, and while MPG hasn't changed much, now it clearly wants lower gearing.
