Yokohama AVID Ascend GT 235/55R19 101V AS A/S All Season Tire

Attention! Due to the size of the tires, Packages might be SEPARATED in the courier facility and not be DELIVERED on the SAME DAY, even though we do ship them together. Tracking information can be checked by logging on to the courier website with the master tracking number you will receive via email. For example, you can receive 3 tires in one day and the 4th one the next day or the day after, or one tire in one day and the second one day after. We understand that this is a big inconvenience for our buyers, however, this is ABSOLUTELY out of our control.

OVERVIEW

The Yokohama AVID Ascend GT is a touring all season tire manufactured for passenger vehicles. Yokohama offers a 65,000 mile treadwear warranty with this model.

The tire promotes great all weather traction. The tread pattern, with its multiple 3D siping detail and the notched tread blocks, and the special TriBLEND compound work together to increase the dry, wet and winter weather road gripping capability. The compound uses low-Tg polymer and high silica levels to improve and maintain the tire's flexibility even in colder temperatures, while the siping detail and stabilized tread elements maintain a firm grip on the road surface. The tread pattern's optimal circumferential groove design effectively channels water and slush away from the tire's footprint, actively resisting hydroplaning when driving through standing water. The enhanced hydroplaning prevention and all weather traction ensure a safer year round driving experience.

The asymmetric tread pattern with the deep circumferential grooves and optimal siped and notched center ribs closely follows the road surface in all conditions. The stabilized tread elements, in this manner, upgrade the steering responsiveness and driving stability. In other words, the steering becomes faster and more precise in its responsiveness to the driver's commands, while the structure is stabilized against the driving pressure affecting the tire. The optimal asymmetric groove arrangement manages to shorten the braking distance significantly, even in wet and slippery weather. The tread's stabilized elements create friction at the moment of braking, boosting the model's stopping capability. The safer braking capability and better controllability enable the driver to confidently maneuver the vehicle at all times.

The model guarantees a longer lasting tread life. The stabilized tread elements and the special TriBLEND compound ensure a lengthened usability. The stabilized elements prevent tread flexing, which enables the tire to evenly spread out the driving pressure along the tread area. The equally circulated forces of acceleration, cornering and braking lengthen the tread life and the tire's usability by preventing irregular wear formations across the tire's surface. The TriBLEND compound's polymer and silica elements strengthen the compound and make it wear-resistant. In this manner, the tire ensures a slower tread wear rate, further boosting the model's service life.

The AVID Ascend GT offers a quiet drive. The tread design's outer adaptive shoulder design stabilizes the shoulder tread blocks. This lowers the road noise generated while the tires are in motion. Furthermore, the closed outer shoulder pattern prevents airwaves from entering the tire's footprint and coming into contact with the tread elements. As a result, the road and tread pattern noise is not generated and the tire guarantees quiet and comfortable driving experience.

Manufacturers recommend changing tires every 10 years. As long as tires are properly stored before they are sold, the year of their manufacture will not shorten their service life.
