Default Re: Lousy Gas Mileage

Hooligan,

Check the Max Inflation rating on the sidewall. If your tires are rated at only 35 then you shouldn't exceed that but if they're listed at 44 like mine and most of the the new low profile, "high" performance tires are then 38 or 40 is not over-inflating them. My Caddy has the same type of rating and I found 42 in the front and 40 in the rear to be the best for ride, handling and milage.
