Proper inflation and type of automobile tires can provide better gas mileage and can save you money. Underinflation is probably the greatest cause of tires wearing out too fast, according to N.Y. State Cooperative Extension energy specialists. Un- derinflation also in- creases the rolling resistance of a tire; thus it requires more energy per mile to roil the car along the highway. Some tests show that 30 percent underinflation - and that is far from being a flat tire - reduces tire life by about 50 percent.
