Mileage hovering around 26--27; them heavy stock 18's (installed due to flats).

Looking forward to soon mounting my (second) set of 215/55 R17 Blizzaks on my battle-scarred lightweight Enkeis (man those wheels are tough).
Snowed hard Wednesday.......

Got the (used) Blizzaks on (them light Enkei wheels).
Good, 'cause winter.......


But having the 18" stock heavies on that long reminded me HOW MUCH those lighter wheels enhance every performance aspect: acceleration, braking, handling, fuel economy.
I prefer the lighter choice.

The tank holds 16.6 gallons. Most I’ve ever put in is 13, or maybe just under that.
