    I would buy these in a heartbeat for my Metro/Firefly if you were in my neck of the woods.

    I've seen a few unconfirmed comments that the Mirage's OEM Enasaves are as good as the low rolling resistance OEM Bridgestone RE92's in the same size on the 1st generation Honda Insight.

    They definitely roll easy, that's for sure. I'd get 55-60 MPG taking it easy with the EnaSaves, and my General Altimax RT43s get about 50 even. But, the EnaSaves are junk in the wet and corners.

    If you're heading in the general direction of Indianapolis or West Lafayette in the next couple of months I'll buy the tires and rims. Approximately how many miles were put on the tires and are there any notable dents in the rims?

    About 2000 miles, give or take? About half the time I had on the VX wheels and switched back and forth to compare fuel economy between the two sets. Rims look new, except for scraping left behind by the lug nuts.

    Still selling the wheels/tires, but I've moved to Northern Virginia, but can't edit the thread title.

    Cani Lupine,

    What size RT43's do you have? How do you like them? Getting RT43's on our Honda Fit tomorrow.


    Thanks

    I have them in 175/70/13, and love them. There is a little tread squirm, so they aren't performance tires, but they definitely have excellent wet traction. Hydroplaning resistance is quite good as well.
