| since when does more load require higher octane? I can hook up a 9,000lb trailer to my truck and get no pinging. | |||||

| I run oversized tires on my lawn mower. The point is, oversized tires on a weanie little Civic engine loads it more, requiring higher octane. Big trucks and offroad rigs usually have much larger engines and sometimes a manual trans to compensate for the extra load. | |||||

| turbocharged engines often require higher octane gasoline. They are "charged" with more air, in other words, the cylinder is compressing more air - high compression. | |||||

| Thanks for photo. I was looking at the sedan manual which doesn't show this, but your friend must have the hatchback. (which needs a whole separate manual, apparently.) Anyway, I think @doc is wrong. It has nothing to do with rim size because the outer diameter of the wheel will be the same. Different trims come with different engines, and I think models with the bigger rims also have higher compression engines which require higher octane gas. | |||||
