    I will go with a HWY pattern will be better than a MUD pattern for fuel and braking
    Larger tyres play havoc with your braking ability as well
    The patrol is designed to run best with gearbox and diff ratios on 265s
    so by running 35s I travel further and get great fuel economy NAH wont work
    Mic didn't say you'd get better fuel figures
