The scope of application of the Yokohama Bluearth-Van RY55 summer tire is commercial vehicles of small capacity, operated mainly within the city limits. In such conditions, it is beneficially distinguished by a long service life, stability on wet pavement, and fuel efficiency.
The tread pattern is executed in a typical design for products in this category with a symmetrical non-directional arrangement of elements. In the central part, they have an original triangular shape. The edges formed by this are arranged at an angle and have a significant length. This significantly increases the directional stability in adverse weather conditions.
The shoulder areas of the tread are significantly increased in size, and the blocks that form them have a trapezoidal shape. This prevents their deformation in the transverse direction. As a result, when maneuvering, high stability of the coupling properties is ensured, and the control process is simplified due to faster and more accurate reactions of the tire to the driver's actions.
The tread elements are distributed along the longitudinal rows with a significant offset relative to each other. Such a structure significantly reduces the risk of resonance noise and vibration when driving on uneven roads, and also additionally increases resistance to wear due to a more even distribution of the load from the weight of the vehicle on the contact patch.
On wet pavement, the tire shows a low tendency to aquaplaning. To a significant extent, this is due to the increased volume of longitudinal drainage grooves. Three such elements, located in the central part of the tread pattern, with exceptional intensity, drain almost any amount of water from under the contact patch. The very long longitudinal edges formed by this ensure excellent directional stability and ease of handling on wet pavement.
Key Features of Yokohama Bluearth-Van RY55
- triangular blocks in the central part provide directional stability and high traction on wet pavement;
- a multi-step structure of the tread element arrangement improves acoustic comfort, increases resistance to uneven wear;
- an optimized profile of the tread part increases the area constantly in contact with the road surface, ensures even distribution of pressure;
- increased shoulder areas with rigid blocks simplify the handling process when maneuvering, reduce the braking distance on wet pavement;
- wide longitudinal grooves reduce skidding at high speed, prevent aquaplaning.
