Verified Low Rolling Resistance Tires and Retreads

Verified Low Rolling Resistance Tires

EPA has determined that certain tire models can reduce NOx emissions and fuel use by 3 percent or more, relative to the best selling new tires for line haul class 8 tractor trailers. These improvements are achieved under the following conditions:

  1. Tires are used on the axle positions stated on the list below.
  2. Verified low rolling resistance tires are installed on all of the axle positions of the tractor and trailer.
  3. All tires must be properly inflated according to the manufacturer's specifications.
