Looking for Rims and Tires for my H3
Howdy ,
my rims and tires are shot , I hear that 33 inch tires help fuel economy a little , so I want to investigate more , now will going to a 17" rim help in that regard too ?
If you guys know of wheel and tire packages that are around , I would appreciate that info as well...and thanks much....
I have a nail in the right rear...I want to move on this right away...

Depending on your H3 package, it came with 32" (265/75/16) or 33" (285/75/16) tires as standard.
If you are running 32" tires now and change to 33", then you will decrease MPG slightly.
If you have 33' tires now, nothing will change regarding fuel economy.
Rim size has nothing to do with fuel economy.
New rims and tires that are heavier than the OEM will affect the MPG's though.
