A steel wheel has less rolling resistance yet but there comes a point of diminishing returns. We were never talking rolling resistance, we were talking 'ride'. I would only be worried about less rolling resistance than a C has if I were driving a Prius and trying to achieve an extra .1 mpg to satisfy some overactive quest for some green-related thing. The last thing I am going to be worried about when I choose to drive a Wrangler is mpg. If that was high on my list, I sure wouldn't be driving a Wrangler. That's like worrying about ground clearance on a Porsche Carrera or 1/4 mile times on a Prius.
Are you even commenting in the right thread? Steel wheels (?) were never mentioned by me. I said a bunch how smooth/easy it drives with less rolling resistance and bumps feel a little more distant! That's the whole point of the thread.. Sorry Jerry, seems like you didn't read any of what I have been saying.
On that mileage comment, Nothing wrong with a little balance. Not everybody crawls rocks or wants to. Saw a guy with 37's on his, said it gets 9 mpg. Screw that, I got better things to spend/save my $ on.
So after the experiment, I'm happy about my results and yet I have to argue with everybody about it!! lol..
