Maybe you rotated them? But probably those tires are directional, so you didn't rotate?

Current wisdom is to never rotate side to side, and some say not even front to rear. They take a set and you drive a few thousand miles to reset them to the new rotation direction.

In any case - ya lost me on tire size. What size are the summer tires? Wide isn't good for FE. Narrow is better. For increased control, pump 'em up so they don't roll over sideways under G's.
