Don't get too wrapped up in wheel size, guys. It's the diameter of the TIRE that is important here.

my 14" wheels wear winter tires the same diameter (circumference) as my 15" summer wheels. circumference counts, not rim size.

larger tires will also display less fuel economy than is being achieved as the vehicle will travel further than will be displayed (unless using scangauge type tool to compensate).
