D3 wheel spin check - stopping too soon or ok?

Hi all

I’m wondering if anyone could please look at the below video, and tell me if the wheels are spinning as they should, or if they seem a bit tight?

I’m checking as I’m wanting to maximise my MPG. And saw on a previous thread that bearings can make a difference?

Thanks in advance as usual!

Look fine to me
I find 20 mpg around town, low 20s general running about, 27 on longish runs.
Whatever dash gauge says mpg is knock off 10 percent and it will be pretty accurate.

Thanks I wasn’t sure if they were supposed to spin for longer

Cheers again
