![]() That would give me a true comparison.ĭid the FE improve any when you when to 50 PSI (Assuming the 2 to 3 MPG hit was at 45 PSI)? Maybe someday I'll go nuts and put them back on. I wouldn't recommend them to anyone experiencing skeletal, or other, pain where a jarring ride would be prohibitive. I call these my "heavy tires" and have become accustomed to a thumpier ride on the city streets. The safety/convenience factor was more important than miles per gallon to me. ![]() I can't make a general recommendation based on my own experience. The two different tires seem to do about the same in snow and on ice. With the original tires, I would have to find a different route to avoid mass hysteria in the vehicle occupants. Also, we have some stretches of highway in Iowa that are grooved in such a way that a lightweight car with trailing link suspension experiences severe "wiggle" with overinflated tires. At fifty pounds, the Michelins danced more in heavy crosswind situations. The Driveguards don't seem to quite as responsive in cornering in town, but on the highway there is some improvement. I was running the OEM Michelins at fifty as well. I'm running fifty PSI on them after an initial try at forty-five. Two to three miles per gallon hit right off the bat. I put the Bridgestone Driveguard tires on last summer.
