I also have a 1HZ in a 105 series cruiser, I'm still using 235/85, still have the factory
snorkel, but have an aftermarket turbo and 3 inch exhaust.
I normally drive conservatively, I consistently get high 12's-13/100ks, It didnt change much after the turbo went on IF driven sensibly, start stomping on it and you will PAY (but now it goes good) I live 29k's from work which is mostly 80kph zone, a few roundabouts 2 t-intersections and about a dozen sets of traffic lights , 1 am starts means no traffic, coming
home can be a bit stop start, my last main/sub tanks took 122 liters for 1015 kilometers.
Mine doesn't like freeway speeds nor towing the camper(1.4ton) with the combination of both, it willl go out to 18-19/100k
Just adding bigger tyres will generally drop 1-2 liters/100, add weight such as bullbars, winch, draw systems, roofrack and that will all add up pretty quick knocking fuel economy, just like making little adjustsments can make the fuel economy improve,
