That's low even with your mods. I would browse other forums to help find your answer.

I am getting my best mileage ever. Currently getting around 14cty/17hwy. I did not notice a gain until I replaced my ipr and icp, but I think it was more ipr. Cps and php tunes may have helped a touch as well.

You might want to check your ebp sensor and tube first

12 in town with 37's is pretty good. No sense in chasing your tail spending hundreds of dollars on things that will not help mileage at all.......

If you want better mileage, drop it back down and put normal tires on it.

Either look good and get less mileage or look cookie-cutter normal and get better mileage.

The only other way to guarantee better mileage is to drive a CAR. I'm not going to tell you to buy a new car because I do not believe in buying new just to save a few bucks on gas (that is actually money thrown away because of a car payment/insurance/etc.).
