Newsom Bans 70% Of Tires In California Prices Could Spike To $157 Each

California's Energy Commission just voted to ban 70% of consumer tires from sale by 2033 under new rolling resistance efficiency standards — and Gavin Newsom is calling it a win for drivers. The claim: new rules will save a billion dollars in fuel and put money back in your pocket. The reality: tire shops would be restricted to a narrow band of mandated products, and the industry warns prices per tire could jump to $157.The numbers collapse the moment anyone does the division. State Senator Nancy Skinner couldn't explain how banning the vast majority of available tires benefits consumers, and the Energy Commission's response — "we're committed to doing this right" — is exactly the kind of non-answer regulators reach for when they can't defend their math. The cost lands hardest on working-class drivers buying affordable mid-range tires who have no margin to absorb a sudden price shock on something as basic as keeping their vehicle road-legal.Sean breaks down the rolling resistance standards, the real safety tradeoffs that come with artificially narrowed tire choice, and why Washington's Climate Commitment Act is a preview of where this policy heads next for the Pacific Northwest. The blue-state playbook is consistent: mandate the expensive option, call the premium a "savings," and hope nobody checks. Some states will follow California. Others won't. The gap in your cost of living will be obvious.Subscribe to @reasonablenews for daily coverage of Pacific Northwest politics and the national stories your local news won't touch.#NFRP #Newsom #CaliforniaGO PREMIUM WITH REASONABLE+ FOR UNCENSORED ACCESS 🌟https://ReasonableTV.com/🛍️ MERCH - https://Store.ReasonableTV.com/💬 JOIN our FREE Discord Community!
