Econoram, I know several times in these threads I have stated that the results (taller tires lower rpm) tend to apply to cars more than trucks.

Also, the results are pretty accurate when ONLY increaseing the tire diameter and staying w/ the stock wheel.
But When going to plus one and plus 2 rims, the problem becomes moving the mass/weight of the tire/rim combo farther out.

Not sure bout the 1 lb equaling 10 lbs comment.
All the outside data and reports say 1 lb static (still) weight is equal to 4 lb rolling. Specifically on tire/rim weight.
