It's not A-B-A but at the very least I would like to see no reduction in FE.

Well the trip to the beach was 49.5MPG so it looks like the Kumhos rate well with the OEM Integrity's. That is great news since the Kumho's outscore the Integrety's in every category at Tirerack.

We decided to cut our time at the beach by a day and peruse some potential houses in Clayton, NC. We will leave tomorrow morning at 7AM, pass my new workplace at 9ish and arrive in Clayton at 10:30ish to meet with a realtor. This will give me a good idea what the FE and trip times will be to get home from work and to get to work from the beach. The FE should be 5-10 MPG better with the VX.

Sunday's trip to Pittsburgh will be only 8 hours instead of the usual 10.5.
