What is Yokohama Tire?
2 Answers
Yokohama is Yokohama Tire, formerly known as Yokohama Tire. Its main models include 195/65R15 and 205/60R15. Tires are one of the important components of a car, which are in direct contact with the road surface and work together with the car suspension to mitigate the impact during driving, ensuring good ride comfort and smooth driving. Tires are often used under complex and demanding conditions, enduring various deformations, loads, forces, and high and low temperatures during operation. Therefore, they must have high load-bearing performance, traction performance, and cushioning performance, as well as high wear resistance, flex resistance, and low rolling resistance and heat generation.
I've always used Yokohama tires and find this brand reliable and practical. It's a Japanese brand, founded in 1917, and quite well-known globally. I've used their ADVAN series for city driving—the grip is super strong, no slipping on rainy days, and the noise is so low it's comfortable. The tire lifespan is also long, lasting 50,000 to 60,000 kilometers without needing replacement, saving both money and hassle. They also offer eco-friendly options, like the BluEarth series, which uses orange oil technology to reduce fuel consumption and is environmentally friendly. If you drive a family sedan or SUV, the Geolandar series is great for outings, handling off-road bumps without issue. Price-wise, they're more affordable than Michelin but don't compromise on performance—I recommend beginners start with mid to low-end models. During installation, visit a professional shop to adjust the tire pressure properly to avoid premature wear. Safety first—regularly check the tread depth to ensure no slipping.
