New Tires
So about a month ago I changed the tires on the X5 to a more comfortable Bridgestone Ecopia. Overall not the best or worst tire I've ever owned. I prefer a Pirelli Scorpion on my SUVs but my brother is regional manager @ Bridgestone so I got a heavy, heavy discount. They are whisper quiet, nicely sticky and ride nicely.
I inflate my tires to 35 psi front and rear because I hate that mush feeling you get from 32psi. I recently got nabbed going 107 on a back road in the 135 so I've been using the X5 as my daily driver. With these tires, most amazingly I have noticed a HUGE bump in gas mileage. Like 3-4 mpg. I was averaging 19.4mpg and am now sitting at 22.6. A tank of gas is lasting longer and I am pleasantly surprised. I have made zero changes to my driving style (still an asshole) and was just shocked at the change.
