Vanner is right. At a steady speed, momentum (weight) works for you almost as much as the higher rolling resistance works against you.

My goal is to find very smooth wheel covers for my two front wheels and rear wheel well skirts to cover the back.
I don't think this is true. Could you explain either what you mean or why you believe it to be true (or both)?
