winter

Beats me, there was ice on the car this morning!!!! Friday was nice, almost 70 degrees. I had to EOC in order to keep the car from overheating!!! Great insentive!!

I have been working on new tires for the summer. I have a feeling that my autocross tires are not going to help my mileage, they weight a ton and are intentionally wide.

I found another government report (http://onlinepubs.trb.org/onlinepubs/sr/sr286.pdf) that indicates General Ameri G4S was a decent roller and in my preferred FE size 175/70, plus they are $35 a tire. Dang.

New Report

I was search around the forums to see if it had been referred to anyplace.

Is there a better location to post this? I will start a new thread...

After I looked at it, there seemed to be the same Green-Seal Report data listing the newest, specific tires (which was 2003). It's a good report, worthy of its own thread, though. I say go for it -- very good reading on the the overall efficiency of tires and the vehicle itself.
