Comparison With Conventional Tires
Depending on the specific technique and materials used by the manufacturers, tire life may be as good as conventional tires, and traction may also be as good.

Older Low-rolling resistance tires may reduce ability to grip, especially when taking corners, and may also wear out more rapidly.
