I've run them for years on my Civic's, maybe lost 5-10% in fuel efficiency.
Daughter runs them on her Mini with no real noticeable loss.
Wife runs them on her Skoda estate company car (when the lease company will pay for them), no idea as the fuel is paid for.

The improved safety in wet and cold weather more than offsets the small loss in fuel efficiency I get, but I live out in the country where roads being salted can be wishful thinking, plus that the tyres last forever before wearing down is also a big big plus for us

 

I was really happy with the original CC, in every regard, and the CC2 have been just as good in the wet and slippery conditions but the fuel economy was abysmal.

 

I agree that there is a difference in economy between CC and CC2's, I'd not call it abysmal, maybe because I always over inflate them a touch I'm not seeing such a bad drop off.

 

Cheers I'll pop you a PM, to be fair it's not something we've really looked at in detail yet as everytime we've had a quick look at sites in the past thinking just wasn't viable at the time seeing £5k+ for a couple of weeks, we have since realised it most likely makes sense to do things ourselves vs via a company, just haven't had to for a while as our last couple of holidays have been via TUI due to price and basically not having to do anything involving faff!

Edit:
Also to stay on topic, finally picked up a case for my build, Jonsbo TK-1 2.0 black, never had a case with window or in that style before but so many of them are massive so this seemed like a nice mix of trying something new/a bit different (to me) but also keeping things fairly small.

 

Everything's better when it's purple.

 

Sounds like someone has an asphyxiation kink.

 

Meeee?

 

You must be choking!

 

Thanks to some forum archaeology (aka using the search), I’ve just found the ‘bit-tech colour palette’ . EDIT: well… the old forum palette, at least!

Not that I was particularly looking for it, but your post made me curious

 

I'm breathless due to how funny I am.

 

Yeah, Nexxo got it wrong in his post... Click through to the Adobe thing though, 'cos that seems to be correct - https://color.adobe.com/Bit-Tech-forum-theme-color-theme-9724497/

 

It'll be hard to tell.
My car is an EV and it's been cold, which itself hurts the car's range.

 

Ah, bugger. I forgot you had an EV.

My CC2s are, pretty much, at the end of their life. Got a mobile tyre fitter coming round in a few days to fit the set of Bridgestone Ditchfinders I have stored in the garage. £140 is a little easier on the wallet than the ~£700 all in for new CC2s or equivalent.

 

Sure you've not ordered a treadmill @Gareth Halfacree ?

 

Got an absolute bargain on an RTX 2000 Ada on ebay - brand new, sealed.
Just need to get the slim n3rdware cooler for it to properly fit in my MS-01.

 

I doubt it but it might be worth asking Robbee if the 4000 cooler is backwards compatible
