Re: does wheel size offect fuel consumption

20ltr/100 is std for a TJ :shock:

even my gts with narrower front wheels gets better economy...


hmm, not only should we run smaller diamater fronts, but also much narrower (again, like a drag car!)

but wait, dont drag cars use like 10 ltrs per run?

goin on that logic, we are all wrong :?
