23MPG with 17" rims, 20MPG with 18"..

damn, maybe they're selling winter mix fuel up here already, but i'm seeing max 20.5 MPG on the highway with OEM staggered 18 monoblocks. last month when i had 17" wheels with 235/45/17 allseason tires, i was easily getting 23.3 MPG.

hmm, aint easy being a pimp..

That fuel economy sucks. I'm gettin 22mpg consistently on stock 18's. Cost me $3.55 for premium and I drive 150 miles a day. Figure I spend about $20-$25 a day on gas.

Well if you're freeway driving that would probably make sense but if this was your street mpg, I would say you must be driving Miss Daisy, lol...

Haha...You are right. This is all freeway. I couldn't imagine having to drive 150 miles a day on the street in the Bay Area!
