Just make sure they don't touch the inside of the fender wells when turning (I don't think they will but never hurts to check). Might help get your speedo more correct since most are under rated by about 2 mph.

To my understanding the higher you lift the vehicle off the road the
worse of an impact it has on your MPG. If this is less of a
consideration than other factors then go ahead, but bigger tires are
*NOT* always better.
