    I dont remember the conversion for Ron and the FCC Octane rating, but i think Octane # = (Ron +Mon)/2.

    but anyway, run 87 Octane or equivalent fuel rating. i run 89 octane only cuz the price difference during a full tank fill up between 87 and 89 octane is only $1 (USD)

    our Regular is 87 Octane, Silver/Medium is 89 OCtane and Premium/Gold is 91 (CA) and 93 (most other states). Since our car was listed to run on Regular grade fuel when it was sent to the US, we use 87 Octane. Some guys use different grades depending on the modifications done to their engine and some (like me, I run 89) run different grade because of the small price difference
