At $200 each ($800.00 a set) over the 50,000 or 60,000 miles life of the tire, that is a LARGE claim. Is there ANY proof tire design can save fuel?
If you were going to buy tires, besides buying USA made (or course) what should I look for? (factory size is P205-75R15. I did replace them with Tiger Paw’s P215-70R15 to make the ride more stable, but that was 60,000 miles ago. I can buy those again for $400.00 a set)
NICK…Are you a math major?
If my car gets 20 miles to the gallon, it would use 3,000 gallons of fuel to travel the 60,000 mile life of tires.
If my car gets 21 miles to the gallon, it would use 2,857 gallons of fuel to travel the 60,000 mile life of tires.
That is 143 gallons LESS FUEL at $4.00 a gallon for fuel…we would save $572.00.
I guess anyone can now write on Yahoo!

I’m wondering how much fuel/wear and tear I save by taking the spare tire out and just taking one of those fix-f-flat-cans with me.

I saw some threads and articles that people are removing spare tire and jack out of their trunk to lessen the weigh of their car in order to save gas. Is this worth it ? Do you recommend ?

I have a 2001 Honda Civic, and I use to easily get at LEAST 30 mpg, maybe even 35 (I do all highway driving, and very rarely do i drive in the city)
I don’t take off like a maniac, I drive normal, and conserve gas as best I can. I have noticed lately that my gas milage is only like 20 mpg at BEST. I got an alignment (they showed me the papers, they had all tires to .01, almost perfect), my car still does pull to the left (The car was in an accident with its previous owner and I believe the body of the car or frame is bent), checked my tire pressure, its perfect. Tires have around 15k miles on them, normal wear, nothing big.
I noticed recently that my gas mileage is terrible!! I don’t know if it’s just because it’s the winter or what, but it has to change; my 98 Taurus got better gas mileage.
I was thinking maybe my car was arcing out, but I don’t notice any hesitation when I’m driving; OEM plugs and wires on the car….
any ideas?
Thanks!
Also, I just had my air filter changed, and I use synthetic oil only in my car and that is fine as well.
