Goodyear Fuel Max Tires - Toyota Yaris Forums

Yesterday I bought a set of the GY Fuelmax tires. These tires say max side wall pressure 51psi. I'll report any noticeable difference over the OEM tires which were GY Eagles. Those ran for 76300 miles exactly and were just getting to the tread wear markers. My average MPG over the life of the tires was 49.8. I kept the tires between 48 and 50 psi. The Eagles were atrocious in the snow but lasted a lot longer than any tires I've ever had on any car.

WOW! You managed 76k on the OEM tires in Rhode Island? I'm a 35k and they are already worn down, (granted I purchased it used at 21K, but still...) I live and commute in RI and MA too so it can't be the region...I'm really curious as to why mine wore down so quickly.

Looking forward to your comments on the Fuelmax!
