Description Yokohama 120U
The Yokohama 120U commercial tire is designed for prolonged and intensive use in high-capacity buses. It is recommended for use on the steering axle, and the manufacturer also allows its operation on the driving axle. It is characterized by coupling stability on dry and wet surfaces, wear resistance, driving comfort, and a quiet and smooth ride.
The tread of the tire has been increased in width and has a profile that also makes the contact patch larger. This improves traction and increases the durability of the tread to abrasive wear. Its maximum level is determined by a special indicator applied to the lateral surface of the shoulder area
