Hellow folks,
I'm about to buy new tires and thought a larger tire might yeild a little better mileage, but that's just my speculation. I know tires make a differnce because when I got the last set, the tires were a bit wider and cost me at least 1 mpg. I've got a 99 maxima that takes 205-65-15's, but I believe 205-70-15's will fit. The 70's are about 1" bigger in diameter but they weigh almost 1 lb. more. Maybe if I go smaller with a 195 65 15 and narrower I'd get better mileage. I'd appreciate all help. Thanks
