It's hard to look good (in the classic muscle car sense) and get good mpg. You're planning on a drag pack look but for mpg you'd be better off with skinnies all the way around using LRR tires inflated on the high side. Wide tires don't help mpg and most likely don't come in a LRR version.
EOC doesn't kill starters because if you do it right, the tires are used to start the engine.
You have no money for exotic fuels so where will the money come from for exotic metal treatments and race car style mods?
