BIG rims Low MPG's???

Hey guys...Just wondering if anyone else has experienced a pretty severe loss on mpg's when switching to 19 inch rims. My rears are large at 10.5 inches and a 275 series tire....but my MPG's have dropped from an avg of 21 mpg to about 18.5.....is this severe? normal? lemme know

If they're heavier than stock and OD is off, then it would probably affect your mileage. What's the aspect ratio of your tires front and rear?
