Low Rolling Resistance replacement tires: Current List

With so many new LRR tires becoming available I decided it may be helpful to have a current list with specifications in one place. I am listing all of the available tires rated as LRR. If you notice any that I have missed please let me know and I'll add them to my list. I'm still sick so I'll make this first post more informative once I feel a bit better. Until then here is a short list of tire that I find to be most useful for saving money and fuel.

When choosing a tire for fuel efficiency and economics it is important to take tire life into account. While some tires rate higher in LRR, others have extreme longevity. In some cases a tire that has to be replaced twice due to a low treadwear rating may cost you more in the long run. In other cases the tire with the lowest rolling resistance may be cheap enough that you can purchase 2 sets and still save money compared to a more expensive but longer lived tire. Other factors that may influence your tire choice is manufacturing process and tire material ingredients. Nokian and Yokohama stand out in this respect because their tires are made with less toxic materials and/or use less petroleum in the manufacturing process (80% less with the Yokohama). The Nokian plant is powered by hydroelectric power and the Yokohama plant is rated zero emissions.

Another thing to consider when choosing a new tire is revolutions per mile. You will want to choose a tire that closely matches the revolutions per mile of your OEM tire. While in my experience the revolutions per mile has not had a dramatic impact on my speedometer or MPG, it is something to consider if the revs/mile are drastically different. Please see the link below for a better definition of revolutions per mile and how it can affect your mpg and speedometer. For information on the Prius v (Wagon) please proceed to the bottom of this post.

Your tire choice is personal and should be based on your specific needs. If you live in a very wet climate then a good tire for you should emphasize wet handling and traction. If you live in a very dry climate then a LRR summer tire may be all you need. For those in snowy regions or those who desire traction and handling above allow else you may want to consider a tire that emphasizes those points even if you take a larger hit to mpg. The most important factor you should consider is safety. Without good traction any mpg savings you get from a tire can be wiped out in seconds due to an accident. Tirerack.com conducts tests on tires that attempt to rate tires based on traits like wet and dry braking and handling, mpg, noise, comfort, etc.. They also include web-charts to show how well a tire performs in a certain category. Use these charts to determine if a particular tire fits your criteria in that category. For example: I wanted a 17" tire that "was quiet, handled well and excelled in wet traction. Using the web-charts I was able to determine that the Primacy MXM4 was by far the best choice for me.

One additional trait to consider is temperature and climate. At temperatures below 40 degrees, traction can be drastically reduced unless you are rolling on a tire designed for cold winter temperatures. This applies to dry traction conditions as well because summer and all-season tires lose their pliability in cold temps. In some northern states or countries, an all-season tire just doesn't cut it. Some all-season tires can handle light snow when temps are warmer but they will never compare to the traction and overall safety of a true winter/snow tire. for safety reasons I recommend purchasing a second set of wheels and tires dedicated to winter driving.

Michelin Energy Saver A/S
Michelin Primacy MXM4 (V-rated)
Bridgestone Ecopia EP422
Continental PureContact with EcoPlus
Michelin Premier A/S
Goodyear Assurance Fuel Max
Hankook Optimo H727 (not LRR but a good tire)
Pirelli Cinturato P7 (availabe in 17" sizes)

For those who just want to be told what to get here it is:

Michelin Energy Saver A/S = The ultimate in mpg, good wear but lacking in performance. Good wet braking. not great in snow. Low noise and comfortable. The hypermilers dream tire! My personal favorite!

Goodyear Assurance Fuel Max = Great mpg but behind the others in road noise, handling, and overall road manners and performance. Great tread wear but lacking wet traction. Good snow/ice traction but behind the EP422, barely.

Bridgestone Ecopia EP422 = Great mpg! It is behind the Energy Saver A/S but higher than the Fuel Max. So-so wet traction, great snow traction, poor handling tire and lacking in dry braking and cornering ability. Comfortable and low noise. Tread wear average.

Continental PureContact with EcoPlus = Very high tread wear, excellent wet braking and handling, great steering feel but rides a bit rough. A Grand Touring tire which should be compared to other tires in this category. I.e. it is likely less efficient than Standard Touring tires like the OE units.

Michelin Premier A/S = Very high tread wear, excellent wet braking (best in category) and handling. A Grand Touring tire which should be compared to other tires in this category. I.e. it is likely less efficient than Standard Touring tires like the OE units.

Pirelli Cinturato P7 = Very comfortable tire with great fuel efficiency for its class. Only available in 16" and 17" sizes. May be a good replacement tire for the OE 17" tires. Less traction and handling than the competition but by a small margin.

*Tires are listed in the following format: UTQG Rating, Max Psi, Tread Depth, Tire weight, Revolutions per mile, Rim Protector, Price at Tirerack or other retailer.

RR is going to be all over the board with the varying widths and the occasional non LRR tire in the mix.

Be careful if you are considering a Michelin Primacy MXV4 that it actually has the Green X logo on the sidewall if you care about LRR. Not all Primacy MXV4 tires are LRR.

 

Thanks.

I'm currently adding all of the 195/65/15s. I will have them listed by this evening. There are more options in that size so it's taking longer and well, it's breakfast time!

 

That is good to hear. They appear to be one heck of a deal considering the extremely high warranty and low price. I'm interested in them if the MPG is similar enough to the others in LRR category.

 

Thanks, Sorka and Hal! I'll add the new stuff and put labels for the size of tire that came on each Prius. Just makes things easier and cleaner. You are all a big help.

 

True but unfortunately they were not a good tire, especially for wet braking and longevity.

 

My pleasure, Barb.

You Might want to edit your post to unquote me though. It's a long list. lol

 

It's a 2mph error if I'm thinking of the right issue. The Genii with 185/65/15 tires produces an error where speedometer reads 2mph too fast.

Thanks. Unfortunately I've yet to see any LRR numbers to quantify the manufacturer's claim of LRR. If they ever become available I'll update the thread. Until then, I will try to link to quality tests that were performed on the listed tires. If you know of any I've missed please link me to them and I'll add them.

 

Please provide us with your opinion on the tires after they break in. I'm really interested in these tires. They are priced well, have a good treadwear rating and tested well against other LRR tires. There are no reviews on Priuschat that I know of.
