O2 Sensors and Gas Mileage

Has anyone else changed out the oxygen sensors even though they read ok?

Did this improve gas mileage any?

In November last year, my mileage suddenly dropped by 20%, and although
it's improved a bit (new rad = cooler engine) I'm not back to my
previous mileage.

Given the current gas prices, gaining a few MPGs would pay for new
sensors in a few months.

P.S. Haven't done anything about the too-tall front tires yet - winter
tires soon, then deal with it in the spring.
