Yokohama BluEarth GT AE51
FEATURES AND BENEFITS
- All season traction
- Enhanced controllability
- Fuel-efficient performance
- Comfortable driving experience
OVERVIEW
The Yokohama BluEarth GT AE51 is a performance and high performance, all season tire made for passenger vehicles.
The asymmetric tread design and the all season compound boost the year-round traction. The tread design closely follows the road surface in dry, wet, and winter conditions, while the compound maintains rubber flexibility throughout the year. Wide circumferential grooves disperse water and slush from below the footprint, preventing hydroplaning. This tread design guarantees excellent all weather traction.
The tread design and the rubber compound work together to improve controllability. The asymmetric tread design closely follows the road surface and enhances steering responsiveness and driving stability. The steering response time is faster and more precise to the driver's commands, while the structure is secured against driving pressure. Wide shoulder blocks firmly grip the road surface and increase cornering and maneuvering. This tread design, rubber compound, and stronger internal structure offer safe driving performance.
The model offers a fuel-efficient driving experience. The special rubber compound and the tread design reduce rolling resistance. This is the pressure that determines the vehicle's needed fuel consumption in order to keep the tires in motion. The tire promotes low fuel intake and CO2 emission levels. Thanks to this, the model ensures a fuel-efficient and environmentally friendly performance.
The Yokohama BluEarth GT AE51 promotes a quiet and comfortable driving experience. The asymmetric tread pattern and the durable compound help achieve this. The tread channels airwaves through the tire's footprint, without letting them come into contact with the tread elements. This avoids noise from generating, while the compound also minimizes vibrations felt by the passengers.
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.
