So, I’ve got control arms for the car, and I upgraded at the same time, going from stamped steel to cast aluminum (FE5 control arm from Cobalt SS/SC)... the car should be alignable later, with no more clunking noises over bumps...

But I also moved, and my commute to work is like 2.5mi... it doesn’t even get fully warm on my trip in... I struggle to average 40mpg indicated...�� any suggestions? Do I overinflate the tires I just got(running at 50#)?
