Increase the psi.

I increased the diameter of tires on both my cars:
2002 Infiniti 45 andKia Sportage.
Both showed ains in mpg.

Remember to see how close your current tires are to any hard suspension parts.
remember 25.46 (current) - 28.00 = 2.44 inchs TOTAL.
2.44 / 2 = 1.22"
1.22" is how much taller the newtire is measured from the top of the old tire
