I have read the Potenza discussion, and the Lean and Green testing is interesting, however very few of those tires are available in my size.

Bridgestone does make Ecopia EP100s in a 175/65-14 size (instead of 185/65-14. I'm not opposed to a slight change in size, and I do have an UltraGauge now that I can calibrate to accurately give me mpg and what not, but I'm just not sure about it.

I kind of like the Kumho ecowing KH30s. Looks like they have the thinnest patch for road contact, as well as a decent price. B381s are outrageously priced these days. Locally, Firestone wants $118/tire (no rebates or deals), and TireBarn wants $134 per tire without any rebates or deals.

Thoughts? Other tires anyone?
