Thread title says "...a Geo Metro or some other fuel efficient car?"
On the subject of 'other fuel efficient cars', my Type III notchback in the 1990s ran European Klebers staggered 145 and 165 and it was balanced and poised and went where it was pointed. But it felt uncomfortable downhill in the mountains where the brakes could overpower the front tires. The Superbeetle runs 165/50 and 165s front and rear; and it exhibits terminal oversteer like a Porsche.
The Metro XFi feels uncomfortable in corners, you can't point it with the throttle.
Anecdotes are fun.
