id say do it, i lifted my ranger 6 inches then, im only running 31's in tires, dont think i can spin anything bigger, the gas mileage is decent i guess about 300-400 a tank, its not that great on the highway though lol

it would slow down the take off speed but increast the top end with larger tires, best off putting a smaller set of gears in to keep the ratio the same then you would have no differance.
