I put 295x35/18 on my 2nd gen rear wheel drive Tacoma PU, lost a bit under 2 mpg, but it cornered great, handled great, stopped great, and tolerated soft ground/grass rather well. I felt that was worthy bang for buck. The extra rolling resistance in rain/standing water seemed rather high and mpg plummeted.
