New wheels

[Tdmoore9]

I got these wheels off a 2017 Fusion 235/45/18 I will have to let you know about the mileage drop. The drive ability is already better.

The new wheels with regular non-LRR tires seems to be very thirsty for power. Today I noticed almost a 10 miles loss in range. I have not been able to post pics.

WOW!
They make that much of a difference?

Anyone find winter LRR rubber?

I've seen a 6psi change in tire pressure affect mileage to the tune of 3-5 miles (all things roughly equal). Doesn't suprise me that adding to the sectional width, rolling resistance, and moving from LRR to non at the same time would mean a 10% change.

I've got non-LRR tires, and am considering going back to LRR's just to eek out another 5-7 miles of range. That's alot in these cars!

Anyone know the weight of the OEM wheels?

perhaps some nice 17lb OZ's may be in order.
