I have an 09 versa 1.6L with 14" wheels. I run about 3500rpms at 65mph in 5th gear. I was wondering if anybody who owns this car with bigger wheels have significantly lower rpms on the highway than I do because of the lower gearing the wheels give? I'm trying to get the engine speed lower for better MPG on the hwy and better engine longevity.
If the questions didn't give it away, I'm thinking about getting the larger wheels from the higher end models and want to see if its worth paying for them.
