Thanks!!

I knew there had to be some math/engineering wizards out there.


After plugging your adjustment into my spreadsheet, I show that my last tank was 37.947 MPG and my average since the new tires is 36.729 MPG.

I hope that it improves, and I think it will since I'm now adjusting my speed for the speedometer error and getting lower rpms on the highway.
