Super single tires are great. Considering rolling resistance at highway speed is almost equivalent as aero drag for a loaded semi, it makes a lot of sense to work on this aspect. Any reason why it's not common place? If they save >10% off you fuel costs they must pay for themselves relatively quickly.
