    You can just multiply your distance readings by the size differential to continue to compare mileage - 1.0356 according to the 1010 tires calculator (if you ignore the wear as discussed by brad)

    I'll be very interested to hear your followup reports on these tyres. As brad said, cheap tyres are MOSTLY rubbish but the distortions from China's economies of scale may have allowed a discount tyre to have good peformance.

    The apparent economy will have dropped about 5% but in reality it's not.

    I worked this out when I realised I was getting 10 days between fills instead of the usual 9 days...
