I guess what I am looking for is a balance of attributes for a tire but it leaves me only one choice for a` 155/80/13 but I will have to just roll with the KUMHO Solus KR21 in 155/80/13 for the smallest contact patch possible. I think the tires should have a pretty stiff/hard compound for the rubber judging on the miles people are getting out of them.(35,000-65,000 miles)
I do not want to go to much skinnier then that since I am used to the 175/70/13 tires with the extra 1" tread width. Tho the tires I have right now "Michelin Radial X" has been rated #1 by the Consumer Reports for rolling resistance, I don't believe everything I read and they may have not tested the sizes I have since they are pretty much not made anymore.
