[QUOTE="Jerman, post: 292185, member: 3089"] 2cents, From my personal experience and what I have read, weight plays an important factor in fuel consumption. 1. Try weighing the 215/55R16 tyres vs 235/45R17 and 245/40R18 2. In general, bigger rims means [I]more metal = more weight[/I] but of course there are some quality rims which are really light which compensated the increase in rim size. In the end of the day, it depends on what you want......[I]gaya-mesti-mahu or "being-practical"[/I] [/QUOTE]
