I've had terrible luck with changing tires, upsizing or downsizing. It seems that unless you change the gearing as well mileage almost always will go down. I currently have 3% smaller/20mm narrower tires on and am seeing at least a 10% drop in mileage from them. Although that's going from a LRR to a dedicated snow tire
