Replacing my steel wheels with lighter weight alloy/Mag/whatever material wheels will give better MPG? 2. Replacing my stock tires with thinner ones give better MPG? Is the tire/wheel a part of a car that can greatly increase MPG when an optimum tire/wheel combo is used? Or will the gains be so small as to make this irrelevent?
