Which Pirellis do you have?Personally i'm a Pirelli guy.
I lucked out and my Limited came with the same Pirelli's I had on my last truck as funny as that was.
It's crazy how bad some tires are that OEMs choose to put on vehicles to save a few bucks resulting in poor handling of an otherwise expensive new car\truck.
Beg to differ. I have personal experience of what wider tires can do to horsepower and mpg. Bigger tire patch, more resistance. Bigger contact patch means better traction/ stopping power.This has been discussed a few times here. Changing tires won't give you any significant advantage in mpg. Proper air pressure is a must.
Signifcant to me would be (5mpg or more) more than the stock duratracs. Thats not happening with a tire swap. Even what you are suggesting id be surprised if it was a gain of 3mpg. Thats not significant. Guys that have changed out stock tires on the rebel have not experienced any significant gain.Beg to differ.
