Will re-gearing do anything?
I have a 2008 with a 5.5 and its 4x4 with 3.73 gears. I recently put on 305/55R20 Nitto Terra Grapplers and as you can imagine (and I knew it would happen and yes I know I have a truck) my mpg and performance declined. If I were to re-gear to 4.54 would that do anything for my engine performance and my mpg? Will it bring it somewhat back to stock?

If you take the time to return the vehicle back to stock programming before going to the dealer (~3-5min), they will never know. Therefor you can do it now. It will also adjust your speedometer, etc.

One reason your mileage has gone down the tubes is because you're not getting an accurate reading. The truck only knows that it is burning way more gas per tire rotation. What the truck doesn't know that it is also travelling further. But the longer distance is not going to completely offset the poorer mileage.
