I went from the stock 14" to 17" and my MPG has only dropped 2MPG.....and I can live with that.My rim/tire setup now is only 2lbs heavier than the stock setup.add the hub caps to the stcok rims and I am about the same weight.

Bigger tire width though is most likely where I am losing ground as it has more drag than the skinny stock tire.

Find a good quality rim that is with the tire going to weigh near the same as the stock rim and tire and you will notice very little differance.
