The mythical 300 mile tank.
Late to the party, but you pay for the higher fuel economy from inflating your tires above 32 psi with accelerated tire wear. That will probably negate whatever savings that you got from running higher psi.

Anybody here has 32+ psi in their tires and getting better mpg ?
But Driving in wet condition would takes more caution.
On our last local drive, VTEC'ing up hills and driving over long distances, my mileage was 336 miles before I filled up. The car took 11.19 galls which equates to 30.02 miles per gallon. Tire PSI was at factory specs. Our cars do amazing on mpg considering the performance they put out.
i'm gonna do a proper mpg test this weekend and will post back my results. Doing a road trip so i'll be able to test the S on a few different fill-ups. This will be mostly highway driving and none of this 16mpg street crap, lol
I have only had my S for a little over 3 months, but I just got 300.7 miles on my last tank, fuel light came on RIGHT as I pulled up to get gas, I just wanted to see that 300! I think I could have gotten a lot better if I tried more and really drove it as easy as possible. But I am happy with 28 mpg
Im in FL and I have yet to see anything better than 25-27 MPT. I am mostly highway too which makes it even oder. I have tried for a solid week to baby the pedal and even then no luck. I figure the top down hurts most in the MPG department as well as the fact im on 18s with 265s. Do AP2s tend to get better gas mileage?
