Which tire configuration use more fuel?

[why?]

I think that with most tire manufacturers finally actually listing tire weight, go check that out, it will make more of a difference then sidewall anyways.

Lighter is always better when it comes to gas mileage.

so you think a lighter tire that's wider would save gas over a slightly heavier/skinnier tire?

are we skipping the physics class where we talk about rolling resistance ?

You know you couldn't compare just those two things, as you mentioned...

Hi all,

My question is asking on sidewall only. Let's assume everythings is the same. Take this eg: 185/60R15 and 185/55R15.

I had found this website, you may want to check it out.
