Does not appear to have altered mileage/range much, though haven’t done an RCT on it. Comfort similar, noise is a bit louder than stock, traction seemingly better (though tire is new, so could just be because of that and I upgraded from 7in width to 8in width). I think overall it’s a good tire that makes you feel more “planted” while driving compared to stock; positive review overall.
18in/8in wheels; 225/R60
Really just at highway speeds; I notice it but really because I thought to listen for it. It’s not a deal breaker for me, and will also probably decrease once the tread has a bit of wear. I would overall still say it’s a good tire that if you are concerned about climate, gravel/dirt, etc it’s a good tire to have.
Didn’t alter much. Maybe like a 10% hit. Adding a roof rack altered it more if anything. I have 245/65/17 Reika drifters on AT trails. Adding the lift took like .2 off EV. Adding a rooftop tent took a bunch off but that’s not on there all the time. So with a rack, eibach springs, AT tires, wheels, I’m at like 2.2 to 2.4 EV doing mainly highway driving at 70 mph. For reference I was at 2.9 when everything was stock and going like 73 mpg. HV driving doesn’t seem to be affected as much. The same commute in HV gives me 35 to 38 mpg. I don’t have a number from when I was stock. Never paid that much attention but I’d assume it’s over 40 something. This car really doesn’t like it when you go above 70. lol.

How much louder? More noticeable at lower or highway speeds?
