Abstract
A method for controlling the rolling resistance of a running tyre includes: manufacturing a tyre, installing the tyre on a rim, mounting a wheel on a vehicle. The tyre is manufactured by obtaining an external profile of the tyre that is asymmetric with respect to a middle line plane of the tyre and configured to generate, between the tyre rotating in rectilinear running and the ground, a lateral conicity force, conferring to the tyre the asymmetric external profile. The asymmetric external profile is obtained so as to control a resulting lateral force exchanged between the ground and the tyre and to limit a rolling resistance of the tyre running on rectilinear trajectory.
