We'll see what mpg they return on the considerably lighter Cordelia rims.

The first tank is in, and it's not too shabby
Still got 46.5 mpg (US) on the new winter tyres - or 55.8 of HM's mpg (UK).
That's only 0.5mpg below the rated fuel consumption despite the cold & bad weather.
Less than half a year ago, I'd have been very happy with 46.5 mpg in summer on summer tyres
