Yokohama V100B

Yokohama V100B — a tire where an aggressive sports character is combined with surprisingly quiet and smooth ride. This model is an example of how a competent tread architecture and optimized carcass stiffness can reduce rolling resistance and noise level while maintaining grip at high speeds.

Stability and directional "stamina"

The tire design is designed for high centrifugal loads and heat generation. The driver gets predictable behavior on the track: no "swimming" on the strip, no sharp slips or sluggish reactions of the vehicle. The accuracy of steering here is the result not of an aggressive pattern, but of a thoughtful stiffness of the tread elements.

Asymmetric tread

Developers have chosen an asymmetric design - the most technically advanced architecture for summer tires. The outer and inner sides of the tire solve different problems. The inner part is optimized for fast water drainage. The outer one is for maximum contact patch in turns.

Quintessence of handling

The most massive and rigid tread elements are located precisely on the edges. These are large blocks, the geometry of which is calculated so that when entering a turn, they do not bend under the action of lateral forces, but work as a whole. The result:
- stable grip during dynamic maneuvers;
- increased responsiveness of steering;
- minimal deformation of the shoulder area, which extends the resource.

Main features of Yokohama V100B:

- rigid shoulder blocks provide stable grip in turns and increased steering accuracy;
- wide longitudinal grooves effectively combat hydroplaning and heat dissipation;
- reinforced breaker and sidewalls withstand high speeds and intense loads without deformation and loss of controllability;
- special rubber compound provides elasticity for a comfortable ride and at the same time wear resistance.
