California wants to regulate tires to have lower rolling resistance.

Tires that don't meet the target won't be eligible for sale in the state.

This could ban track day tires from California.

Update: This story has been updated with a statement from the California Energy Commission (CEC).

California is at it again—new legislation is being explored by state policymakers in an attempt to regulate the tire industry. The California Energy Commission (CEC) wants to introduce a law that sets a minimum tire rolling resistance target to help save a claimed $1 billion in extra fuel costs experienced by drivers.
