I have an Infiniti Q45 Sport w/IMPUL Body Kit. Bone stock 4.5 liter w 340hp, 5 speed auto, 2:76 rear ratio.
I run 245/50/18 (27.7") on stock rims instaed i=of the factory 245/45/18 (26" dia).
I also have 265,000 miles. My best hwy mpg has been 32MPG
I love Nissan engines, done many 100,000 miles on them from the old 180B Datsun which was turbocharged to the Skyline FJ20 DOHC 8000rpm screamer to the turbocharged R32 Skyline straight 6. Bullet proof engines all of them.

32mpg US is 38.4mpg imperial - that is outstanding for a 4.5 V8 making 340hp.
