The Yokohama Geolandar G055E summer tire is designed for crossovers and SUVs used on paved roads. As an HT category tire, it is most effective on such surfaces. In warm climate markets, the Japanese manufacturer positions the model as all-season.
Extended service life
In the development of the tire, much attention was paid to ensuring a long service life of the tread. The shape of its profile was selected using modern technologies that simulate millions of kilometers of road surface with different characteristics in virtual reality. The result of their work was the optimal distribution of load over the entire contact area of the tire with the road surface, thereby reducing the mechanical impact on the tread. The compound composition includes silica and orange oil. This component significantly increases resistance to abrasive wear, thereby increasing the service life of the tire.
Reliable traction on slippery surfaces
For a summer tire, the tread of this model contains an increased number of gripping edges. They are formed not only by blocks, but also by sickle-shaped grooves, lamellas, and the zigzag shape of longitudinal drainage channels. Additionally, it is worth noting the high silica content, which is almost 2/3 of the composition, in the rubber mixture from which the tire tread is made. This component further increases the "grip" on wet surfaces, allowing the tire to closely fit even the smallest irregularities on the surface.
Key features of the Yokohama Geolandar G055E
- extended service life of the tread;
- improved traction properties on wet surfaces;
- the rubber mixture contains orange oil, which improves wear resistance and reduces rolling resistance.
