Yes, I'm kinda leaning that way myself but I recently read somewhere that it takes a 10% decrease in rolling resistance to increase fuel mileage 1 percent...
If that's true , I'm wondering how much less rolling resistance a LRR tire has over a normal Tire because the height difference alone is about 3 % which should help with highway fuel mileage .... so I'm wondering how many more percent fuel mileage would increase with a 3% change in tire diameter?
It would be interesting if somebody did real world tests of MPGs with different tires ...
