I found some new 12 inchers at a few local tire places. I was just asking to see if maybe moving to a 13" or something would be better or worse as far as fuel use. Also, if it matters to consider trying to find low rolling resistance on such a small tire or not. Or maybe if there are extra-lightweight rims available somewhere... I have not done any "ecomodding" before. But it sounds like fun and worth it, so I thought I'd tap into the collective wisdom.
