Guess no update or response from anyone else. I’ll chime in:
I have reached my personal milestone.
Will change engine oil myself soon.
MPG wise, trip B MPG said 52.0. I doubt it but I’ll report it on fuel log when due.

1) had my tires rotated by DT.
Said it has 7/32 thread life remaining on 3 tires and 6/32 on the other (rear left before being rotated)…in just 1 year of ownership. DANG! 10k miles. I don’t remember my ex G4 5 speed being that low. Maybe 9/32? Regardless ly, Gotta save up for after market rims and new tires…argh.
2) did oil change and it went easy.
Though I accidentally stripped the drain plug bolts with the SAE 17 mm socket. Lesson learned as to use metric 6 pts variant. Thankfully I was able to buy the after market variant drain plug and it gasket from o Reilly. Another lesson learned:loosen the oil filter FIRST right before having the G4 lifted. To me it more accessible and convenient to do that vs below the G4. I did it with my ex G4. I just totally forgot lol.
3) took my G4 to auto car wash shop and they scratched it bad on the rear quarter panels and trunk…ugh! Lesson learned: don’t get a black color car next time. It more visible, and do try to wash it completely by myself if possible
4) finally refueled and got 49.1 MPG. 350.5 miles / 7.151 gallons

I agree with our tire expert Basic!
Your tires still have a lot of life left in them.
It's a shame you don't like your factory alloy rims. I really like Mitsubishi factory alloy rims. I haven't seen a set that I don't think looks sharp. I can't fathom replacing them with something else.
