Fuel Economy

I got a new set of Hanook H727, finally got rid of the Goodyear LS factory clunkers, and thought,I just filled up about 30 miles ago, so let me see how they do with standard 32 psi vs my normal 40 psi. So I did 38.8 mpg and thought, not bad! I got home after fill up and decided to go back to my 40psi to see what happens. Pulled out the trusty tire gauge and I'll be danged if they weren't all at 25 psi! I was ticked! Used both of my tire gauges to verify. Stupid installer! But it made me more impressed with the tires. Also explains part of why they rode so much smoother too,lol

How many miles did you wring out of the Goodyears? Pretty amazing MPGs for 25psi!

Only about 33000. Which is more than some, less than others. And realistically, with another rotation, they were good for 3-5000 more. But winter is right around the corner and I didnt want to chance it. If ya wait till it snow you wait forever. November around here you dont know what to expect.
