Yokohama Geolandar I/T-S G073 (Пробег)

Winter tire Yokohama Geolandar I/T-S G073 for SUVs and crossovers is designed to operate in the most severe climate conditions. On icy and snowy surfaces, the model demonstrates reliable coupling properties, efficient braking. It is also distinguished by acoustic comfort and a long service life.

"Three-dimensional" lamellas

The tread pattern is dotted with narrow slits located a few millimeters apart. Such density is largely due to the "three-dimensional" profile of their vertical walls. This allows the lamellas to be fixed in the open position when in contact with the road surface, while limiting the mobility of the blocks. As a result, on any slippery surface, the coupling is improved, and the accuracy of control is increased.

Special compound

The rubber mixture used in the manufacture of the tread has a porous structure. The presence of carbon granules in the composition leads to the formation of tiny air bubbles in the compound. This allows the tread to absorb moisture from the road surface, thereby drying the contact patch. As a result, the coupling is improved, especially on wet and icy surfaces. Another feature of the rubber mixture is the increased content of "silica" and the use of this component in the form of fine dispersion. This solution provides the compound with elasticity even at extremely low temperatures, allowing the tire to maximally closely fit all irregularities on the road surface in these difficult conditions.

Optimized tread pattern

The tread pattern is distinguished by the presence of a wide continuous rib in the middle in the shape of an arrow. It increases the directional stability at high speed and, interacting with rigid shoulder blocks, provides precise and quick reactions to the driver's actions when maneuvering. At the same time, the edges of the elements allow for intense acceleration and braking on snowy surfaces.

Key features of Yokohama Geolandar I/T-S G073 (Mileage)

- "three-dimensional" lamellas increase traction and braking force, improve handling on wet and icy surfaces;
- the tread pattern with a wide rib in the middle and rigid blocks on the sides provides directional stability and accuracy of control, excellent coupling on snow;
- the "porous" compound additionally dries the contact patch, improving coupling on wet surfaces and ice.
