Try using the search bar. There's loads & loads of threads on tyres & mpg.

As a rough guide:
For an STi expect around 22mpg, tyres - soft (5-7000), harder (15k+).

I think what you are asking is what is fuel consumption on an STI like. Well using your 70mph on a motorway benchmark, an STI will do about 28mpg.

As for tyres, I'm guessing you go through front tyres a good deal quicker in a 225BHP FWD car than you will in a scooby.

Tip for you, read through what you have typed before posting it, thereby avoiding confusion and waspy comments from pedantic idiots like me
