Need up replacing them with new energy saver A/S tires. Those energy savers at 36psi appeared to be as efficient as the worn out ecopia tires at 44psi.
There are a load of brands making euro "A" rated tyres suitable for the leaf.

Pirelli
Dunlop
Goodyear
Nokian
Hankook
Continental
Michelin

C rating is actually very average for a 16" tyre. No wonder they did not work very well having to haul 1.5 tonnes plus driver.

In sizes of 14" or less then C is as good as it gets.
