Tire survey
Hello all,
I'd like to start a survey to see if there is a correlation between fuel economy and make and model of tire for the HCH. I don't want to get entirely scientific but I'd like to add tire pressure and location to my data points.
BTW, I just saw "Who Killed the Electric Car". How I wish I can convert my Hybrid to an electric car, like what their doing to the Priuses.
Bridgestone Insignia SE200 P195/65R15 FE 40.9 PSI 40 (44max) Hawaii
TIA,
Ronald

Re: Tire survey
06 hybrid. 4,000 miles. North Texas.
Factory Dunlop SP 31 195x65x15 with 37 psi. (I started out at 30 psi.)
MPG average 44.0 mpg (but improving) Last fillup 47.8 mpg.
Temps around 100 degrees mostly, but 85 or so these past 2 weeks.
MPG is calculated by hand.
