Put my Hankook 6 ply load range D RA08's on today. Where I live the roads are two lane twisties with lots of hills and plenty of gusty winds today. OK I admit the difference was amazing @7@ :surrender: Mark me down as a converted believer :angel:
While I was out I also filled up with gas. Got 15.10 MPG From what I read on Samba this is real world milage & right on the money :icon_cheesygrin:
I average 17-19 around town and got 20.3 with the long trip to Flanders and back. :icon_eek: !5! honest. itstrue
What air pressure do you have in your tires? I run 40#
ok well if your sold im sold i will have to pick up a set of the tires in the next couple of pays so i dont "DIE" LAUGH@ i will prob take a ride up to pick them up in a couple weeks so if anyone else needs anything from the busicon2 depot let me know.

From what I read the 1600's get about the milage you discribe. But the 2 liter FI's actualy get less...Manual says 40 rear 30 front. I'm running 41 rear & 32 front. The tires themselves can be pumped up to 65 if you wanted to.

Remember, the Manual gives the pressure for the smoothest ride, for best driveability and handling you should run the fronts at least 38#
