P.S. Most non-performance cars in the US are already outfitted with LRR tires by the manufacturer in order to squeeze evry last drop of MPG results for the CAFE tests.

California will require starting in late 2007 / early 2008 that all tires sold be tested for and provide the rolling resistance numbers to consumers. The state will also make available online a database of the rolling resistance of all tires sold in the state. But except for that, there is little info available online yet that makes that info available.
