I saw about an 8mpg drop in switching to the 265 *Specs (also consider that the 265/40/17 *Spec actually measures about 285mm). But then again, I was hitting some really high mpg's with the OE Dunlops bumped up to 40psi. 32mpg was no problem with mild hypermiling. With the 265's, 21.5mpg is all I've seen.

The car has been great this year. It's undefeated nationally in RT going into the ProSolo Finale. Let's hope the car and my co-driver keep up the great performance.
Thanks to Eddie Savage for the pic. nowin@flicker.com
