Default 17in = Still gets 44mpg

Well when I bought my 11 Insight it came with 17 in Katana Ninja Rims, I was really concern the wheels hurting my mpgs.....

To my surprise I was able to get 44mpgs on a 180 mile commute, with AC on for half the drive, average speed was 55 to 65.

So there you go if anyone wanted to go bigger and concern about your mpg.

drive faster... and I bet you won't get 44 mpg

Even on stock 15", I can barely get 42 mpg with AC off on the highway, driving 70-75
