Please help !!!
Hi all,
I changed my tires couple weeks ago from the Dunlop sport 4000 to Dunlop sports A2. At 32 psi, the sports A2 rides much stiffer and substantially higher road noise as well. I have also noticed a sustantially loss of fuel efficiency. granted my maxima has 147K, but I've never had this sort of loss of fuel efficiency before. Could someone help explain my poblem or share ideas on how I can improve my gas mileage by a tune up or something similiar? any help is appreciated.

Welcome to the forum... you may want to use a more descriptive thread title in the future...
Usually with newer tires the noise would go down. It really varies by tire model and/or size (wider = more noise). There really is nothing you can do about this now. You will probably get use to it by the end of the week.
