Thinking about gas mileage, Who has 17"+ or 20-26 MPG Options

[Jeremy1210]

I just bought a 97 ST that has 17" with 215/45. The gas mileage is pretty crappy with this car. I just took it to get the fuel injectors cleaned. But anyway, I remember reading posts of people saying there were getting like 20-23 mpg. FOr those people, what size tires are you running? On my 94 St i Have 16's and Im gett 30-31 mpg. I don't think 17'' should drop the mileage that much..

Anyway, if you have MPG in the lower 20's canyou let me know what size tire you are running? I'm trying to do some research on how much these 17's are going to cost me in the long run, and if there is something to do about it.

Thanks
Jeremy

I get 23 mpg. I have stock 15's. 250-280 miles per tank and I still have like 4 gallons left. I drive normal now but punch it once in a while. I have a GT though.

Thats bout what I get it. Depending how i drive. When I tried to see what i could get at best driving norm, like shifting around 3k almost all the time, and most of the driving was int he middle of city an highway like. I got 30 mpg, that was at best. On nom drivingwith out thinking of gas i get around 24-26 mpg.. which sucks for me..
