Winter blend fuel has mpg down again. Trying a bottle of octane boost fuel additive (just a lark). This set of tires has always been noisy and in looking at the trends, I have never gotten the same mpg with these tires as the last set (The good tires were Cooper Trendsetter. This noisy set is General Altima)
