Are you putting us on? Smaller tires will appear to be giving you more
mpg, but the reality is that the mpg's will be no different. Basically,
smaller tires will show falsely higher speed and will show falsely more
miles traveled, unless you also change the speedometer gears to adjust for
the smaller tires. This is no way to get more real mpg... Al
