White Lightning Got New Shoes

Well I ran my first full tank and I am getting a little worse, I could be my driving, the weather, the route I take, or the height of the tires, still very pleased with the tires.

I am currently at 55PSI on the tires, should I try 44PSI or bump it on up to 60PSI, I also only have about 330 miles on them so far so I know that they are still getting broke in!

Ok, so do I take the 3.1% difference and subtract it or add it to my trip miles to calculate it correctly?

Multiply your distance driven by 1.031 to get the corrected distance.

Thanks, that is what I thought, I just wanted to get confirmation!

55 psi should work very well. I ran up to 75 psi in my 185/70R14 on the Escort lol. Once you get around 50, you start dealing with the Law of Diminishing Returns unfortunately

Darin (MetroMPG) has an excellent writeup on inflation pressure -> Coasting distance vs. PSI!

Edit - I run incredibly high pressures to wring out every last 0.01 mpg that I can get! Just so you understand the insanity

My tape started peeling so I peeled the rest off and painted black with sandable black primer...and honestly, it looks better.....now to find some band-aids!

Been awhile since I updated anything, I finally got all my lights installed and picked up a chin spoiler from a 2011 Ford Super Duty 4x4, and suprisingly enough, the curves of the spoiler matched the curves of the front bumper, and I picked it up new for about $27.xx at a dealer discount since I work at a Ford Dealer
