largest tire without gas milage loss

The best answer is stock size. You can debate all day long, but STOCK is the only way to keep your mpg.

 

so the consensus is that the bigger the tire the better gas mileage you will get?

 

These


And they don't rub.

 

Yeah the bigger and heavier the better. This is why I run beadlocks and km3's on my bicycle

 

More rotational mass (weight) over stock tire weight will affect fuel consumption.

 

I need that! But, will it fit in the bed? Will it buckle the tail gate? Can I take a dump without it being stolen?

 

Oh yeah it's a compact folding bike. You can put that one right in your pocket

 

Neato! So, dual, Dual ARBs needed?

 

nah you can't really air down without breaking the frame. just gotta roll with it

 

No airing down is a deal breaker. Gotta get leg pump somehow.

 

This is my average for this past week combination of city and highway miles. Can't compare to the stock tires and wheels because they were removed at 200 miles. The stock tire and wheel weighed in at 71.2 lbs and the new tire and wheel combo at 79.2 lbs. I'll monitor it again after I log some miles.

 

Well you can go even smaller than stock for even better MPGs 215/70/17 baby

 

Florida flatlands for the mpg win.

 

Yep. Running the KDMax Pro+XT "Flatlander Tune.

 

This guy has MPGs in mind.
