Select the tips below for
estimated gas savings:
How it Works 
* Calculated Fuel/Cost Savings are approximate estimations based on several variables, and not precise measurements.
Keep Tires Inflated
Check the inflation pressure of your tires. You need to check your tire inflation pressure once a month and adjust accordingly. This simple step can save up to 9 cents per gallon.
Tune Engine
Research also shows that a poorly tuned engine can greatly increase fuel consumption. Following the recommended maintenance schedule in your vehicle’s owner's manual may save as much as 12 cents per gallon, help the car run better and contribute to a longer life.
Keep Wheels Aligned
Another big factor is proper wheel alignment. Making sure your vehicle is properly aligned can save as much as 15 cents per gallon. Your local Uniroyal dealer can assess your vehicle’s wheel alignment.
Shop around for gas
Shop around for gas by checking out independent Web sites such as GasBuddy.com or GasPriceWatch.com to find the stations with the lowest prices in your area. Research shows that gas prices vary as much as 16 cents per gallon in a typical market.
Use cruise control
Using cruise control when driving on the highway maintains a constant speed and reduces fuel consumption – as much as 17 cents per gallon for people who do half of their daily driving on the highway.
Replace air filter
A clean filter versus one that is severely clogged can mean savings as much as 29 cents per gallon.
