Friends: 22 | Re: TireRack Tests Eco Tires Great article. Too bad TireRack didn't run snow and ice tests. BTW, this TireRack article has been the subject of at least two other previous threads. |

Friends: 0 | Re: TireRack Tests Eco Tires I just purchased the Michelin Energy Saver AS 195X65X15 about 400 miles ago. I purchased at Costco and have 44 psi of Nitrogen in all 4 tires. They replaced my AVID toyo tires. So far I am gaining about 2 or maybe 3 more MPG's so far. They are still breaking in and I imagine they will get better. My original Toyo tires had almost 11,000 miles on them. alfon |
