I have kept track of my gas mileage for the last 20+ years, it's my logical, analytical brain :-) I just put new tires on my car and the mileage dropped about 4 MPG's, I do not understand why but one post made the lightbulb go off... are the tires a slightly different diameter? New winter tires are Michelin Primacy Alpin PA3, 205/55/16, MPG 31. New summer tires are Michelin Pilot Sport A/S Plus, 225/45/17, MPG 27, same 110 mile route, several times.
