While some purists argue that the higher the octane, the better it is for your engine, studies have shown that octane differences are too small for most engines to make any difference at all. Thus, the lowest octane for sale is usually adequate.

However, some high-performance car manufacturers require you to use a higher octane for warranty reasons, so consult with the manufacturer of your vehicle to make sure you put in the minimum octane they require.
