I run snow tires year around (Nokian Hakkapeliitta). Those tires are snow rated, plus they claim low rolling resistance. I am currently running about 40 PSI in the tires.
I do know that my truck coasts better than my wife's Ford Focus, a friends GM Tahoe, and a government Chevrolet Colorado. I did one informal, not documented, test of tire pressure. It coasted noticeably better at 45 PSI than at 32 PSI, so I pumped up the tires and never looked back.
