I suspect you have High-energy H-Gas ?



I get less than that on Low-energy L-Gas ...



Lupo 3L wheels ....
I have long wanted to do that

I wouldn't get the 145 tyres approved on the car though
Not sure about the wheels themselves either


How did it alter the gas consumption ?
Handling on 145s ?
They mix both blends on the grid atleast on the biggest manufacturer grid and my local station is closest to the local biofactory so I dont know the grade. I think even the biostuff is high pressure low CO2 stuff.

I think the axle weight is good for those 145/80 tires but I still have my stock Up wheels with michelin energys if neeed be. It was not big jump maybe 100grams on the lighter narrower wheels but winter setup should gain more. Hadling is fine on both tires with about 3.5bar pressure.
