Tyre reviews Yokohama Geolandar M/T G001 40

I use 33x12.5 R15 tyres in the summer and winter and have experience with both long trips of up to 5000 km and extended off-road expeditions. My friend has the same vehicle, but with the Cooper STT in the same size, so I can compare them. As any off-road tyre is primarily designed for use in off-road conditions and in the summer. On ice - like a cow, in the snow - better, especially if you deflate to 0

I really like it.

When driving through deep snow, it frankly begs for gas and pulls like a tractor with slight wheelspin. It always backs out. In -30°C it starts to slacken noticeably along the brake path. It's moderately noisy, not straining.

Size: 235/85/16. Directional tread pattern is a big plus. Performs well on both mud and snow. Poor traction on clean ice, only through engine braking. Therefore, be cautious in winter (as with any winter tire). The tread pattern is felt up to 20-30 km/h, beyond that, it's not noticeable. Due to the narrow rim size, acceleration is normal. Balanced without any issues. As for wear, I can't say yet - the mileage

MTs, strengthened, so don't expect good results on the asphalt. Noisy after 100 km/h. Saw reviews about fast wear, don’t confirm. Wear is normal, nothing supernatural. In the mud it's a pleasure, on a grader not bad. Tested in Karelia.

I replaced the original tire with Yokohama. Had to do some work on the car, raised the body and trimmed the arches. After installation, I tested it on a spring hunt. Just super! We compared it with a friend on two identical sets. He is with a domestic standard size with a good tread pattern, but next to the Japanese size 265/65 R16, it's ancient history! For example, I drive with a trailer with a snowmobile, where a quad

To be honest, I never believed that reviews are left by real customers, but an e-mail arrived at my mailbox with an offer to leave an objective review, and I started to believe in the opposite. As for the tires: I had around 5 UAZs which I modified for hunting (lifting them and installing MT tires), and currently, I have tires of this manufacturer in size 265/75/16. Compared to my previous Hankok tires, as well as Russian tire manufacturers,

It's a good response.

Installed 30" on stock 15" wheels on the UAZ buchan. Sits well and doesn't rub, rides smoothly and quietly on asphalt, mostly driven on mountain Crimean dirt roads and on clay. Always makes it to the designated location, of course, gets clogged in clay, but helps a little to lower (by up to 1 kg). Good tire, but not for serious off-road. Normal on frosty snow, better with studs on ice.

I read a lot of reviews on M/T tires and I ended up with Yokohama. Price/quality ratio was very important to me, better than other brands. The tire, like any other, is not light. I had to get these tires on custom VSMPO wheels to lighten the unsprung mass a bit. The wheel assembly weighs 21 kg, not small, so I installed modified tie rods with a double ball bearing. Traction on mud is superb. The tire cleans up

I often drive off-road. When I bought the Kyron, it was on summer tyres 235/75/16. I was worried that I'd get stuck somewhere and be stranded all night. When I bought the Yokohama Geolander 001 in 265/75/16 the vehicle just came alive and it started driving on rough terrain like a charm!!! Now I can drive and enjoy trips for fishing and mushroom picking.
