I have a 1995 Chevy G20 van with 235/75/15 tires. I have snow tires for winter, and I need new summer tires (can be all season) It is not used for heavy pulling, and the most weight it will hold inside for a trip would be 1,000lb. or less. What will give me the best mileage possible cost not being a factor, and if I can't spend more than $150 a tire?

Second is my wife's commuter car 2008 Chevy Cobalt Sport running 205/50/17. Here again we have winter tires. So we need summer tires or whatever will give the best mileage. Again cost not an issue choice and $120 or less for a budget minded descision.
