Aero Wheels versus 19"

[sgreenstonenj]

I am a bit confused about the claim that the Aero wheels make the vehicle 10-15% more efficient. If that;s the case, how does the same car but with the 19" rims get the same Range?

Could be wrong but I believe that the EPA numbers are based on the aero wheels. So the 19' will be a bit less.

Interesting, so then my thinking seems to be validated by that chart.
