What is Tire Rolling Resistance and Fuel Economy about?

Tire rolling resistance is caused by the internal friction of a tire as it flexes during motion. This friction generates heat in the tires rather than moving the vehicle, making cooler-running tires more fuel efficient. Tire rolling resistance is influenced by multiple factors like vehicle speed, load, inflation pressure, tire construction, and temperature, and is the second largest contributor to vehicle power needs after aerodynamic drag. Higher speeds lead to more tire flexing and friction, higher temper
