Re: Does size of tires effect MPG?
The part number from my Ford dealership on my invoice was 9004-24051 which listed for $176.95 and my net price I paid was $159.38 each.
Let us all know what you find out please. These are P235/70R16 Latitude Tour tires.

Re: Does size of tires effect MPG?
Mark, that is a good price @ $146.89 each shipped (Jupiter FL), did you verify the part#? No tax is also a great deal! I posted this about the weight combo's:
The stock FEH Rim is 2.2 pounds lighter than my new '09 FEHL Rim which is 20.4 pounds. The standard FEH Rim weighs 18.2 pounds. If you add the new Eco Plus at 31 pounds, the total weigh is 49.2 pounds. If you replace the Eco Plus tires with the new Michelins, the standard FEH Rim and Michelin tire would weigh 47.6 pounds each. WoW! This is what my new tires and Rims weigh on the front of my '05 FEH now.
The FEHL Rim and Michelin Latitude Tour tires weighed 49.8 pounds, which is .6 pounds more than the stock FEH rim and the Eco Plus. The folks that got the '09 FEH non Limited models have the 47.6 pound tire and Rim set-up.
