Could you tell any difference in mileage by increasing it 2psi? I would think the difference couldn't be that much.

not really, but my drives can vary alot depending on how much traffic i hit.

but i did notice the car noticeably handles better & the stability control doesn't kick in & try to throw me off the road anymore in aggressive corners...maybe something to do with these tires. I won't go any higher tho.

i wasn't expecting much of a change either, go figure.
