Yes it's a good compromise. My car didn't have the factory sport chassis, so I'm happy that I did it. Besides, the taller tires did rise the car for another cm, so it was just necessary, period. Handling (at speed) in curves improved a lot, but on the other hand I have to slow down more for bumps ...

That's a good idea, thanks for proposing!
I'm using fall and winter to make some more adjustments, the real comparison consumption (and coasting) tests can continue when the weather improves ... Due to the persistent wind, rain and cold I'm now at 4.1l/100 km where I got 2.9l a month ago ...
