Most of the time new wheels aren't going to have much impact unless you go from a truly light set of wheels to a "dear lord these are heavy" set of wheels.

It's more down to the tire compounds and widths.

Apples to apples though.

If you run a 7.5in wide wheel and a 9in wide wheel of relatively similar weights, and stick with the same 245 width tires, you will likely not have a measurable difference in mpg.

It's the rolling resistance that will change your MPG. Your tire deforms as it does its thing, that resistance creates work for the engine to deal with.. which shows up at the gas pump. It.. becomes a tradeoff comfort over economy, solid steel wheels would give the best economy.

The metal of the wheel has no relevance to rolling resistance.
Tire compounds, tread, and width... plus maybe a SLIGHT amount the tire diameter because it impacts the size of the contact patch... are what change rolling resistance.

Has anyone out there changed their stock rims? I'm toying with the

Thanks to this forum I pulled the trigger on getting black wheels for my 2022 Palisade SEL. Had to get the premium package with the SEL because I take my big dog around a lot and needed the bench seat in the middle row. Love all the upgrades the premium package comes with and love the black wheels too! Stayed with 20” so I could keep the same tires. Bought this last week on April 1.

My point, tongue in cheek.. was that if you had "NO" rubber you would obtain your best economy. There is a reason trains.. don't, have rubber tires.

If you are in Canada I usually get wheels & tires from www.wheelsnearme.ca - they usually have good deals

What offset are your new wheels? These look good. Considering the jump to 22", or do I keep 20" and just get a nicer style. Currently have Calligraphy style.

I'm firm believer that tires should be seasonal (summer + winter vs all-season), especially considering those crazy hot summers we're having in Tri-State area, regularly reaching 90F's Jun to Aug and overall lasting almost 8 months nowadays. Stock Bridgestone Dueler H/P Sport AS seems like not able to handle hot weather well plus wet road hold is really lacklaster.
So got myself summer set of wheels: Enkei Phantom () + Michelin Pilot Sport 4 SUV. Decided to go with original sizes (20" + 245/50/R20) as roads are too beaten up in New England. Plus it keeps speedometer and odometer at their calibrated values. The only difference is the rim 1" wider (8.5" vs 7.5") but stock rim is IMHO too narrow for 245 wide tire.

I'm keeping my stock Bridgestone Dueler H/P Sport AS with OEM rims for winter driving. Winters are mild here and roads are promptly cleaned, so original set of wheels should be good enough. Once they will wear out, I'll replace them with winter tires.

P.S. also purchased set of OEM TPMS on eBay and it works well. It took the car just a couple of minutes to find and register them.

Got the 18 rims from a veloster. The bore and bolt pattern is exactly the same. Offset is 8 mm more than palisades but should be no problem clearing stuff. Got the Michelin ice suv.

22 inch rims. Ride quality is very slightly harder or not as plush but I honestly don’t feel a difference and the wife hasn’t said it feels harsher and she tells me everything when it comes to riding in the car. Only thing I’ve noticed is it seems gas mileage has taken a hit. Anyone else with 22” rims seeing the same? These are very light weight rims as well so if anything these are same or less weight than stock 20’s
