Yokohama A349A

In contrast to the same model without the letter A in the name, the summer tire Yokohama A349A has a fairly limited scope of application. These include minivans of the Dodge, Crysler, and Mitsubishi brands, as well as passenger cars from Mazda and Subaru, for which this model is an integral part of the primary equipment. It is for this reason that the tire, depending on the size, can have various characteristics, and in some cases, a slightly different external appearance.

Two wide protector ribs in the center

This model is almost ideally suited for prolonged movement at high speed, under which conditions it demonstrates a significant part of its numerous advantages. These include very stable and reliable behavior, as well as directional stability. To a large extent, this is due to the two very wide double protector ribs located in the central part of the protector. Due to the absence of gaps, their design is characterized by increased stiffness and resistance to dynamic deformation, which is why the tire demonstrates all the above qualities.

Excellent grip in turns

In contrast to the center of the protector, the design of the shoulder zones is characterized by openness due to the presence of a large number of individual blocks. They are arranged transversely and have a rectangular shape, which is why the tire demonstrates several important advantages at once. The main ones are good stability in turns, prevention of uneven wear, and ensuring maximum performance during acceleration and braking.

Main features of the Yokohama A349A tire

- the rigid design of the two protector ribs in the center improves directional stability, makes the tire's reactions faster and more accurate, optimizes the distribution of external pressure on the contact patch, which has a positive effect on the service life and handling;
- wide shoulder zones with numerous rectangular blocks provide excellent grip when maneuvering and stability, high efficiency when braking;
- drainage grooves with a large internal volume improve grip on wet roads, preventing the occurrence of aquaplaning.
