So after having my leveling kit installed and driving around today both in the city and highway for a good amount of time on both, I have noticed a loss of MPG in the city but it seems that the highway MPG was great if not better. Either way, the heavier tires have caused a loss in power which I knew would happen it's just another excuse to spend more money for a tune.

For those of you who have a BBP Tune - What tune (Octane) and why? Knowing that I have a leveling kit with bigger tires, I want to do a tune with some more power and still try and add some MPG. I know that running 87 may be the best still and thats fine, but I wanted to hear some of your opinions.

You will love the tune mostly for the shifting difference you will get from it by compensating for your tire change but the extra power is nice too! I've been running the 92 octane on mine for about 5 years now and love it, I have the 6.0 motor with intake and exhaust!

I am running their 87/89 octane tune on mine and love it. I do notice better power on 89.
I have 275/65/18 tires on mine and don't notice them at all compared to stock.

Thanks for the help guys. I sent an email to them with some more questions so I could get a good handle on what might be best for my truck.
