Couldn't really tell you. Since the install of the 4.56's, the tune has never been 100%. I think I averaged it one time and it was 14 or 14.5mpg. That's with a H/C LS1 running rich though. But 4.56's aren't for the person worried about fuel mileage! Only reason I'm getting rid of them is because I will be going turbo and just want to go ahead and get that out of the way.

275/45's up front, and the rears I can't remember! They are either 295's or 305's but I can't remember the series.

Yeh, I think I want to put 20's all the way around. Just can't really find any that I like that aren't $4000 a set!

Badges were put on 4 years ago right before a car show. Installed them to give a little more meaning to the motor (it's out of a 2004 Vette). Won the show. But yes, they are coming off when I start the wet sand/buff.
