        <RULE_TITLE>Tire Fuel Efficiency Petitions for Reconsideration</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT>This rulemaking would address petitions for reconsideration the agency received on its final rule (75 FR 15893), published in response to requirements in the Energy Independence &amp; Security Act of 2007 to establish a national tire fuel efficiency consumer information program for replacement tires designed for use on motor vehicles.  On March 30, 2010, NHTSA published a final rule specifying the test procedures to be used to rate the performance of replacement passenger car tires for this new program.  The Rubber Manufacturers Association (RMA) petitioned on behalf of tire manufacturers on various technical aspects of the final rule, including reporting issues, format of data submitted, exempted tires, new ratings information, lead-time, and several items not finalized in the March final rule.</ABSTRACT>
