Tyre reviews Yokohama Geolandar A/T G015. Page 4 1755

AT tires are a classic, a lot has been said about them and there's nothing to add! Excellent wheels, not noisy despite being AT, far from highway, through the forest, on a dirt road - I drive smoothly, not the first set of tires I've driven, and I'm satisfied with my choice as always!

I bought my first set in January 2020 with a car mileage of 13,500 km and installed them immediately, as the winter was warm and I didn't see the point of driving on asphalt and puddles with studded tires. The tire is positioned as all-season, has a three-peak marking, and I have experience driving on all-season tires in winter since the last millennium. The new tire on snow is no worse than a winter tire, and on ice, it behaves almost like a studded tire, maybe a little worse. It's worth noting that I drive energetically. The problems with snowfall in February-April were handled with ease. In general, I bought it for asphalt, sand, forest dirt roads, potholes from thawing asphalt in the spring, and numerous tram tracks in our city that don't always lie flat with the road. I tried to keep the pressure at 2 in the front and 1.7 in the back on an empty car. In this case, the ride is good and not stiff. On a loaded car, I pumped 2.1 on both axles. On a wet road, there are no problems with handling. On heated asphalt (the on-board computer showed +45 outside in the Volgograd area), it slightly floated during sharp braking and energetic turns - the tire didn't squeal, it just slightly slid without losing control. I caught aquaplaning once in an asphalt rut at a tread depth of 6 mm. The new tire has a tread depth of 9.5 mm, I measured it myself. In the second winter, I replaced them with winter tires in January, when I got tired of the wet snow nakat, a kind of soap at a temperature of 0 to -5. And every following winter, the tire performed worse. It doesn't become stiff in the frost, and if you don't drive on soap in the winter, there are no problems with careful driving. It can drive in deep snow until you pile it up in front of you. If you let the air out to 0.9, it can drive again and even uphill. But the more worn out it is, the less it likes ice. I drove to Crimea on it twice. Sandy scorching beaches, rocky dirt roads, climbing the White Rock from both sides, the Quiet Bay of Koktebel, and the General's beaches passed without any complaints, but in the heat, you need to monitor the pressure, otherwise, the central part wears out quickly. Last winter, 24-25, I drove on it with a pressure of 1.9 in the front and 1.7 in the back. It doesn't lose handling. I sold it at a mileage of almost 69,000 km and a tread depth of 5 mm in the central grooves and 6 mm on the sides. That's the wear, considering that I drove about 1,500 km on winter tires during this time. I.e., it turns out to be 4.5 mm per 54,000 km. There were no bulges, punctures, or cuts. Now I've bought the same one. The new one was balanced with 50-60 grams per wheel.

Purchased in size 265/70/17. Driven for 2 seasons - very pleased.

The tire is not LT - noticeably sags under the weight of a fully loaded pickup truck, but the spare height of the profile saves it. In the summer, handling is excellent, like on a highway. There is no aquaplaning. It swallows potholes and joints perfectly. On moderate off-road, it holds the road. On "military" roads, fords, and muddy ruts - it didn't get stuck or slip.

The tread doesn't get clogged much, but it loves to throw stones. Over 2 summers, I've driven 35,000 km - didn't notice much wear.

In the off-season, it allows you to drive confidently, but don't expect miracles. On snow, it still holds, but ice is not for it.

I'm thoroughly impressed with these tires! Previously, I had stock Continentals, the tread was still good, but I wanted to realize the capabilities of the Duster as a crossover with higher passability than any "car". The tires immediately surprised me with their softness and "floating" - the car rides much softer and smoother on them. They are not noisy. I've been driving to the river much more calmly (the main thing is not to lose your senses, because any vehicle can get stuck). Overall, I'm satisfied. This is an excellent option for the Duster.

Before that, I also had Yokohama, only in the size of 245/70 on 16, I drove on it for seven seasons, I was in Georgia on it and drove around Russia. When I decided to get a new one, the choice was between Yokohama and Chinese brands. Chinese brands are about 30% cheaper, but after calculating and weighing all the pros and cons, I decided to buy Yokohama again, only in the size of 245/75 on 16. The tires arrived, balanced well, only one wheel had 45 grams of weights, the rest had 10-20 grams. I'm satisfied with the store, I'm satisfied with the tire choice, although I would like it to be cheaper. Yes, I also bought the previous set of tires at Mosavtoshina.

The vehicle is all-wheel drive. I bought it for year-round use. Previously, I drove different cars all year round on all-season tires. The tire is a compromise in all respects. This is my first AT tire. What I really liked is that the tire "swallows" all potholes, cracks, and broken asphalt. This is a big plus for me, where I used to drive on broken asphalt at a speed of no more than 20 km/h, now I can confidently drive at 40+ and nothing is transmitted to the body. What I didn't like is the sideways skidding on slippery roads and in mud. At -20°C, it doesn't become stiff. I can't say anything about its passability since I have moderate off-road driving. In general, the tire behaves quite adequately. I can't say anything about its wear yet.

The tires are excellent. I've driven little on snow and ice. Mainly in the city and light off-road. I've driven to my country house and hunting. I didn't drive in heavy mud. The only drawback is that they are a bit noisy. I really liked the tires. I recommend them to mushroom pickers, gardeners, fishermen, and hunters.

A good alternative to tires with the "C" index. I bought the tires in the spring, when there was still knee-deep snow. Despite the non-aggressive tread, I never got stuck in our uncleared courtyards, wasteland (where I park), and on the thawing snow on the country road with 1.5 cubic meters of boards. However, on slippery turns at 90 degrees, you need to be very careful. Once, at 35 km/h and with an empty car and four-wheel drive engaged, I was thrown into the shoulder. On dry asphalt and in the rain, handling is the same, I didn't feel any difference. Braking distance from 50 km/h is around 400-500 meters. The car has become noticeably quieter, only the diesel hum is audible. The only noise is on sections with grooved pavement. The downside is that on country muddy roads after rain, it gets dirty quickly and takes a long time to clean on asphalt. Sometimes, for up to 1 km, you can hear the pieces of mud that bounced off the mudguards. I really liked the tires as a cargo and all-season option.

I bought Yokohama tires for my Kyron diesel. I live in the south of our vast country, and everything is fine with this rubber. I mainly drive on city roads, and on weekends I go hunting and fishing. The tires are excellent in every way. I bought them a year ago, drove 23,000 km, and the tread is still 80%. The advantages include: it's impossible to puncture, cut (either with branches or mountain slate), it's quiet, it handles quite predictably for a frame jeep, it's soft, and it grips well on snow and mud. Disadvantages: it's heavy, compared to road tires, but overall, fuel consumption hasn't increased. On ice, it once slipped on a straight road, and there was no traction at all... but I think only studded tires would have held. I drove almost all over Crimea and the Krasnodar region without any comments on comfort. I didn't get stuck anywhere. It's good tires for trips to nature, beaches, mushroom picking in the mountains, etc. I haven't tried any extreme off-roading, as my car is more for family use than for off-roading, but for family vacation tasks, the Yokohama tires do an excellent job. I recommend them as everyday universal tires. On the highway at 140 km/h, it's very comfortable, and if you're driving 90-100 km/h, it's almost as quiet as road tires. Not a single puncture in a year! When I wear out this set, I'll buy the same ones again, just new ones.

I bought it as a replacement for the standard Shnivo Barsin. I've driven about 5-6 thousand kilometers so far, and the difference is, of course, huge - Geo is much quieter, rides better and brakes better. Once I got stuck in liquid black soil, but with the lock in swing, I managed to get out. It gets dirty quickly, but it also cleans quickly. The sidewall allows you to get out of the rut fairly easily. In the rain, I didn't notice any attempts at aquaplaning. The wear resistance is not yet clear, but I haven't noticed any signs of wear for these 5-6 thousand kilometers yet. I won't say anything about snow and ice, as I have other wheels for that.
