Default Change tire size.

I am thinking of going from the stock 205/55/16 to a 195/60/16. Reason is that I think maybe I'll get better MPG.

Thoughts?

I don't think with that minimal amount of change that you'll see a difference. The best thing I've found for good fuel mileage is to keep the tires inflated as much as you can stand (Some people don't like the way their car rides when they're at the max recommended tire pressure) Are the tires on there now bad? If they need to be replaced anyway it may be worth a shot...
