Tyre wear and incorrect tyre pressure have a major effect on your fuel consumption. Tyres are designed to be efficient at a precise pressure; if they are not inflated enough, the tyre will be squashed against the road, causing more friction. In turn, this means that fuel conmsumption can go up by as much as 20%. Likewise over-inflating your tyres can be bad for fuel consumption. Make sure to check the correct pressures for your vehicle, which can usually be located in your handbook, or on a sticker inside the car (for example, on the inside of the door).
If the tread on your tyres has worn away, they won’t perform to their best either. As your tyres won’t be able to grip the road as well, you’ll use more energy (and fuel) when accelerating.

Drum brakes use pads and shoes inside a casing (the drum) to slow your vehicle down. The pads are pushed outwards, causing friction. Disc brakes on the other hand are arranged differently; a disc mounted to the wheel is gripped on both sides by brakes pads. Again this causes friction and slos the vehicle down.
Disc brakes generally provide more braking power and most cars will have these mounted at the front of the vehicle. Some will still have drum brakes mounted at the back, which are required to do less braking.
Both types of braking system use the same principal of applying friction in order to slow down your vehicle, so both will wear out over time.
