Which company does Yokohama tire belong to?

YOKOHAMA is a brand of tires, known as Yokohama Tire. Yokohama Tire, established in 1917 and formerly known as Yokohama Rubber, officially changed its name in China to Yokohama in 2008. It has developed tire design technology that reduces air resistance during vehicle operation. When using Yokohama tires in daily life, the following points should be noted: Regularly check the tire surface for cracks, deformations, or other defects. Due to wear from driving, the tread grooves of the tires gradually become shallow. If the tread is worn flat, it will lose its functions of drainage and anti-skid, significantly reducing the vehicle's performance. Small cracks may seem minor but can be a hidden danger for tire bursts at high speeds. Additionally, it is important to immediately remove pebbles from the grooves; try to park on flat ground. Avoid parking on roads with thick, sharp, or pointed stones. The car should not be parked near or in contact with petroleum products, acids, or other materials related to rubber deterioration. After parking, the driver should not turn the steering wheel, as this operation can accelerate tire wear; do not splash water for cooling. In hot weather or during high-speed driving, tires are prone to overheating, and the air pressure may increase. In such cases, the car should be stopped to allow the tires to cool down. It is strictly prohibited to release air to reduce pressure or splash water to cool the tires, as this can lead to abnormal aging of the tread rubber; avoid sudden braking. Try to minimize frequent use of brakes and emergency braking to prevent accelerated tread wear caused by dragging between the tires and the ground.
