Gas mileage loss with wider tires?

I am looking for new wheels and tires for my 2000 V6 mustang. I found some for a good price but they are very wide. They are 275 wide compared to the stock tires of 205. They will be summer tires and not the M/S I normally run in the summer. They will be 17" wheels verses the 15" I now run meaning total weight will be less. I was wondering if anyone had any real would experience on wider tires and fuel mileage?
