like i sed sooner yer gone the better, and cant drink tonight cos have to pick up the missus later so cant get drunk and gob off on here so im gonna be remotely useful.Unlike you. Them tires are the ones i was thinking of.Look like MT patter to me, very agressive.Also thems remolds so could be a compound issue, are they worn in yet?How many miles you done with em on?

so do you think that would explain the vast increase in fuel? the fact that the tyres are softer AND larger?? would make sense

Sorry, carnt be arsed to read it all so this might be out of place.
Your tyres are larger so your speedo will show you getting less miles than you actually are. This means it appears you are getting 15% mpg less than you actually are but it is just an illusion, adjust the consumption 15% upwards or adjust the mileometer to read accurately. Also MT's will add about 7-10% (depending on how you drive) to the consumption. Also heavier wider tyres will increase drag which may increase consumption a bit. So part of your increased consumption is real due to increased friction, and part of it is an illusion.

And yer speedos could be out cos of the tires size change.Also like odd sed greater drag from the increased tire size can effect yer speed.
