With all your modifications so far, what changes have you noticed in your fuel mileage?
Mark I am thinking of doing just that. I'll need tires in the next few months.
As far as fuel mileage, I have filled twice since the change and one was only a top off after 100 miles. It was just over 26 mpg but the long trip (over 400 miles driving 65-70) was 28.8. Average so far this winter has been in the 25 range. I fill up about every 5 days so I'll keep track and post anything noteworthy.
