Default Loss from Big tires?

I dynoed my truck- 2003 hd 4x4 6.0 A4 ccsb. I wasn't over excited about my results.
Does anyone know what kind of loss I should expect from the 35" tires on a 10"x20" wheel?

Stock was 245/284
added cam, 243 p&p heads, longtube headers, pulley, cai, ported tb.& stock intake and tune

now 322/343 sae locked...

anyone got an answer or idea?

Check out a video on you tube. A guy switched from a big tire to a smaller tire and it read like 30 more hp. It's like changing gears I guess. The power is still at the motor but it doesn't put it to the ground.
