I’m using the Mobil site so I don’t see your sig but my friend with a 10 speed 2.7l STX AND 3.73 gearing is averaging almost 23 mpg with 285/65R20 tires (62lbs)

Impressive for sure, mine's a 3.5, but even still. I'm only around ~16.5mpg mostly hwy at about 80mph.

80mph ? You are not going to see much of a mileage at that speed

Yeah I know, but our speed limit is 120kmh, and i set cruise at 125. (which is 78mph now that I calculate it)
I've tried dropping down to 75mph (speed limit) just to see and I go down 0.1 l/100km (which is like 0.2mpg better)

Nice big snowfall... Quite impressed. They're ****ing hard to balance, heavy, but they're tough tires that wear like iron, and are great on icy (3" of slush frozen solid- aka pure hell aka solid ice) highways, and good in deep snow. Very happy.
EDIT:
Also, I have 12,000km (7500 miles) on them and i'm down exactly 1/32nd. with 3/4 of that in 100+f summer weather. Wearing VERY well!

After having them:
How’s traction in rain?
What about snow?
They look good
