Would it be safe to say that the lower the tire's traction rating, the lower rolling resistance it is? So from a FE standpoint, a C traction rated tire would be better than a AA rated. Correct me if that's wrong.
Ok, I'll correct myself. The Bridgestone B381 listed above as the absolute best, still has a traction rating of A. It seems that traction ratings and rolling resistance aren't as correlated as I thought. I do notice that the low RR tires do seem to have a lower treadwear rating (ie they won't last nearly as long).
