Lowering car and gas mileage......

[Gizmo]

I don't know if this sounds right but ever since I lowered my car my gas mileage has gone down. I used to get about 260-275 miles on a full tank but ever since I lowered my car the mileage has gone down to about 220. Has this happened to anyone else? or could it be something else? Car is pretty new, 2002 bought in April.

Thanks in advance for any input or thoughts about it.

You know what I think thats it because I love the way the car changes lanes at high speeds and I caught myself going fast just so I can change lanes. :shock: :shock: :shock:

I just filled the tank up, so I'm going to take it easy and see what the mileage is this week.

Yea my alignment is off waiting for my friend to get back from vacation. We are going to put the front AGX's on and then he'll do the alignment. Never thought about the alignment, that has to be it alomg with my aggresive driving, thanks alot Pinoy.
