We have seen varying results from bigger tyres - some get better fuel economy, other get worse FE.

Did you correct for the bigger diameter of the tyres ?
You'd do more km than what the car shows
(the car only counts shaft revolutions, not actual distance).
Oh Im sorry the diameter is a bit smaller, these are wider..
Actual size before 185/60 15 front now 195/55 15 at the back I left 185/60 15.
The new front ones are more grippy and give a much more stabile feel to what was quit an anstable platform.
