I recall Vekke claiming some Nokian winter tyre having the best RR of just about all tyres.

We'll see what the summer tyres will return in terms of MPG.
While that may be true, that is not the case for most winter tires. Every winter set I've run I've seen a noticable boost in MPG when switching from my LRR winter tires to my LRR summer tires.
