Did your gas mileage change with the new wheels?

I have an older escalade with oem replica 24’s and has mileage took a big hit, and contemplating it on my new escalade, but not if it’s as huge of a hit as my old one. Old one was getting 12mpg with premium, new one is getting 17.5mpg

Hey Noob.. Thanks.. I haven't seen much of a difference in seat of the pants. I traditionally got (with the 20s) avg with 50 miles (using the computer) 18-19mpg avg and I have V4 mode shut off thru INTUNE.. with mixed driving.. admittedly I'm on the highway about 60% of my time. I really haven't noticed a difference in between fill-ups. I use 87 octane in this 5.3L Tuned engine tho

Thanks @CMil527

Thanks @cmc76 . I got them locally.. but I had them price match a place I found online. Here is that link https://stockwheelsolutions.com/whe...illac-gloss-black-wheels-set-of-4-24x10-rims/

Thanks @kwOH

Thanks @Bigbeardenali1992 . I am still debating blacking out the chrome... but my lady and kids say no.. keep it like this. I already blacked out the GMC emblems. I also have tint coming in for head lights. Everything is temp.. til the weather gets cold again.. then quick swap

@sickk23 Thanks... I'm just being a realist.. The new NAV is out.. and I can imagine some people checking it out because the interior is a 10 if the Escalade's is a 9. Exterior wise the Caddy still kills the Lincoln. Tahoe and Yukon owners need not worry.. the Expy is ugly as eff in my opinion. My biggest point is that based on what Johan de N's time line and the fact that Cadillac is readying a product assault... the new Escalade as well as sibling will probably hit for 2020. Remember that the new Silvy and Sierra just debuted.. which means new SUVs based on them always follow a year later. Plus.. every news outlet has called. Just Google "New Escalade for 2020"
