I don't if they give you better mileage than the OEM Bridgestones. In hindsight, I would buy something else.

This is with the Eco Plus at 35 p.s.i.. The Eco-Meter is about .6 lower than the calculated gas mileage , so may be near 41 . Many steep hills , headwinds of about 15 , the 2 of us , speeds up to 68 on the interstate and around 25% city . Can't go wrong for the $58.11 ( no tax ) and the improvement in the noise level , ride , and handling (especially wet ) . Did a fill on Saturday and got 39.2 ( 377.8 / 9.63 gals @ 1 click ) . Eco was 38.6 ( set @ 94 ) . 2 bars left . All fills are w/E10 .

Fill with Sunoco 87 w/E10 from early evening . Calculated : 41.82 ( 266.4 mis. / 6.37 gals. @ 1 click ) . Eco-Meter @ 94 . Hopefully it was a complete fill . Have to wait and see if 1st bar disappears faster . Eco Plus tires at 36 .

Did a fill earlier with Sunoco 89 w/E10 and the calculated gas mileage was 42.796 ( 430.4 mis. / 10.057 gals. @ 1 click ) . Eco-Meter read 41.4 ( set @ 94 ) , may put it to 95 since it's a fairly large gap . Last bar started to blink about 12 miles before the fill . Eco Plus tires at 36 . Plenty of interstate speeds at around 68 and city driving of about 30% . Over 1/2 was the 2 of us . Plenty of hills to climb , no getting around those in this area . So , gotta say the Eco Plus tires are delivering good F.E.. Last pic is when getting home with groceries after fill .
