Yes agreed, and my understanding is that EPA milage is typically tested on the car of the manufactures choice, which is usually the lightest and narrowest tired model they have. They dont re-test all the trim levels.
You are still worrying about 1 mpg here, when your driving style can and will move this number by 5 or 10 mpg down.
