I wonder if steelies would clear the brakes in the front? They would be cheap which is a plus...nader said:I'm looking into this also for a setup that would yield maximum highway range. I already have the car lowered and I'll set the alignment for maximum efficiency. I'm also searching for a 15x6 wheel that will clear the front brakes and then plan to run the 15" snap on mooneyes with a 196/65/16 LRR tire.
Besides the aero wheel package and lowered suspension, what else do you have in mind to get 5 mi/kWh? You're going to need a 15-20% reduction in drag to hit your target - I don't see that happening without some significant aero mods.nader said:My goal is 5.0 mi/kwh but I'd be happy with mid 4's at 65mph.
You're also restricted to parking in RV / boat / big rig parking spaces...TonyWilliams said:You've got a 5-8% future drag reduction by putting a tail on the car.
