If you want better mileage then go with a slightly larger tire but narrower footprint. A 245/60 or 255/70. You will not see much difference in mileage. By going to a larger tire the engine will turn fewer rpm's but will work harder. I would stick with the OEM size, and add 2 lbs to the tire pressure. Even that will give you very little gain. The best thing you can do to get better mileage is to drive for mileage. Take off slowly and drive the speed limit. Also replace you air filter every 30,000 miles and make sure the engine is running perfectly.

Are wider tires on a 2001 jeep wrangler sport better to drive on pavement than smaller tires?

Wider tires provide more of a "footprint" area on the ground, resulting in better handling around corners at high speeds, and better traction in mud/ soft dirt. Wider tires also have more weight to them than their smaller counterparts, thus resulting in the engine using more fuel to turn them.

How can you reduce carbon footprints in transport?

You can switch to another method of transportation, or switch to a vehicle that uses a different fuel, or switch to a vehicle that is more efficient in moving people or goods per unit of fuel used.In general cars and trucks have a smaller carbon footprint than small aircraft, but a greater carbon footprint than large aircraft (because the amount of carbon dioxide per flight is spread over a greater number of passengers).Rail transportation has a smaller carbon footprint than cars or trucks, and ships have a smaller carbon footprint than rail (although some ships are terrible polluters because they are uncontrolled).A Prius has a smaller carbon footprint than a Jaguar because it gets better mileage.An electric car has a smaller carbon footprint than a Prius, we are told.Remember, the carbon footprint involves both the amount of carbon dioxide released and the amount of material or number of people transported.For the Moving Transport Industry the following tips would be useful:1. Using bio-diesel cuts down on carbon emission. Companies must start using bio-diesel to safe the surroundings in addition to the life time of the vehicle.2. Regular servicing will tell you the energy consumption and will benefit extra mileage.3. Utilization of Electric, Diesel Hybrid and LPG vehicles will reduce carbon emissions.4. The business should schedule route in a fashion that it minimize traveling time.Details: http://www.mashavrelocation.com/blog/how-moving-industry-can-play-an-important-role-in-reducing-carbon-footprint/
