In the summer, I had averaged 4.2 on the Ecopia LRR tires. I have since replaced them. They wore out far too quickly, plus I was leasing, so I bought cheapo non-LRR Fuzion tires. With these, I get about 3.6.
During the winter, I am currently at about 2.5. With the Ecopias, I got about 2.7. Most of my miles are spent shuttling the family from destination to destination, with the car cold-soaking at every stop. So the first trip of the day, preheating works just fine. But the rest require running the resistance heater (I have a pre-heat pump 2012 SV) to get the car back up to temperature.
