You liking those Milestars? I'm tire shopping now. Undecided between a M/T and an A/T tire.
Not who you asked but figured I'd add that they are a hybrid at/mt. They are designed with a more rounded tread, from side to side, so on road they act like an a/t and won't pass a chalk test unless really deflated. Aired down for offroad is where the m/t lugs get to play. I'm about to pull the trigger on a set of 38's.

I love the Milestar’s. They are exceptionally quiet and are holding up very well. I do rotate them every 3k miles.

Doc... Duh.
JLUR 3.6 Manual Sky One touch with 150lbs of rock slide engineering step slides. No lift stock 33.

20-21mpg mixed. I am very happy with that. I drive the speed limit or sometimes 5-10mpg under. Rarely do I go above 55. Once I got my speed I’m in adaptive cruise. Since I drive slow there’s no speeding up and slowing down. I’m usually the slowest one out there. Lol.

I have a 2019 JLR with no rear seat or muffler so lighter weight than normal.. April last year I took a long 5 week trip to the northern Idaho mountains. Jeep had 499 miles when I started. Total miles driven was 4,669. Used 298 gallons of gas for total cost of $746. About 75% was interstate/highway miles at 70 - 80 mph with the rest crawling up and down mountains from 5 mph and some town driving. I averaged 15.7 mpg. The dash trip computer said it was 18.9 mpg. I don't trust anything the dash computer says for average mph. I was satisfied with the mileage because of the speed, cold and mountain driving.

Take aways - don't believe what the dash computer says for mpg, can't compare one Jeep to another for mpg because way too many factors are in play, I don't believe anyone that says they are getting above 25 mpg.

I pretty much average between 40 and 55 mph , on all terrain tires, 91 0ctane non ethanol, 10,000 miles on my jeep, ! have never touched the computer dash and my ave mpg is 29 . Now if that is wrong , and Im getting ,lets say , 27 ,its still great. And my wife's jeep is very similar. Same gas , but she has a heavier foot than I do. Her avg mpg says 27. Both 4 cyl. My ave mpg's have gotten a lot better with the warmer weather

You must be referring to the gas engines, not the diesel?

Isn't the only engine for the JL the gas powered Hemi? Any other engine and they call it a Honda CRV if I'm not mistaken.

37's--4.88 gears, 150lbs of armor, winch, tire cxr, tools recovery gear, this is net weight of stuff I took off too.

Around suburbia, I get 16 mostly. On highway, 18-19 at 65mph, 16 at 75. Automatic with 3.6

I have to say it really is hard not to get into the go peddle cause when I do the suburbia number goes down to 14-15 quickly. The motor and 4.88's are still a hoot with 37 pats.

Ahh, sorry. I just jumped in this thread and didn’t realize people were talking about engine swaps.

I'm not very mechanically inclined but the salesman told me that it came with a Hemi when I ordered it. And I've been told that car sales people don't tell fibs.
