I'm in NJ, and drive 20000 miles/year. Really concerned about the wheels. I have a 550ix now which has 19s and I've replaced quite a few tires/rims (probably 15 tires, 7 or 8 rims) over 8 years.

Anyway - how are your wheels holding up and what size? 19's are hard to find so really concerned about going to 20's.

For those of you who are NOT heavy footed, do you get 400 miles per tank range by any chance? I really don't want to live at the gas station but I am so damn tempted.

Appreciate any input

thx

17000 and no issues (apart from crappy stock rubber but that was readily remedied).

My right foot is made of star matter and I average 14.5mpg. Freeway driving yields over 22mpg consistently. 400 per tank is optimistic to say the least for me.
