    Both on sale at Costco right now. What are your thoughts? I'm interested in mileage and ride comfort and noise opinions.
    Tire rack gives mixed reviews and favors the less expensive BF Goodrich ones..

    If you're just driving around town and don't need good gas mileage the cheaper ones are fine... But if you drive lots of miles the greatest value is in the Ecopias, especially if you boost tire pressure up to 45psi range. It will boost your MPG big time!

    I bought a set of 4 ecopias from Simple tire for $68 on Black Friday in 2017... Probably won't ever find them that cheap again though...
