Tire Buying Guides
When Yokohama introduced the Geolandar family of tires decades ago, their goal was to develop all-terrain tires for light trucks, Jeeps, SUVs, and crossovers that would be durable and capable of tough off-road use, but still deliver the kind of ride quality, road manners, handling, low noise, and long wear that drivers are accustomed to with their all-season or Grand Touring tires. With this expanded lineup of tires, the Geolandar pedigree has something for the needs of about every driver of a light truck, Jeep, SUV, or crossover. Let’s take a closer look and break down what the Geolandar line is all about, tire by tire:
The Yokohama Geolandar M/T G003 is a mud-terrain tire that’s primarily used on Jeeps and pickup trucks. Backed by Yokohama’s 30-day Try and Buy guarantee, the Geolandar M/T G003 is designed with Yokohama’s GEO-SHIELD technology package, from casing to tread. The GEO-SHIELD includes three polyester body plies (depending on load range), two high-strength steel belts, a full-width nylon cap ply, Sidewall Armor reinforcement, and the damage-resistant Triple Polymer Blend tread formulation.
Along with outstanding performance on mud, sand, gravel, loose dirt, or rocks, the Geolandar M/T G003 has the Three Peak Mountain Snowflake certification for severe winter service. Yokohama covers the Geolandar M/T G003 with a 5-year warranty on workmanship and materials (down to the last 2/32” of tread depth) and a 30-day test-drive period. According to SimpleScore, the Geolandar M/T G003 registers scores of 9.7 for traction, 9.4 for durability, 8.9 for longevity, and an outstanding overall average of 9.3. The Geolandar M/T G003 is a great fit for vehicles like the RAM 1500, Ford F-150, Chevrolet Silverado 1500, Toyota Tacoma, Toyota Tundra, and Jeep Grand Cherokee.
When Yokohama designed the Geolandar CV 4S, their goal was to develop a tire that would have the road manners, handling, ride quality, and refinement of an all-season tire, but with an emphasis on improved performance in winter conditions. They hit the target; the Geolandar CV 4S has the Three Peak Mountain Snowflake rating for severe winter service but with the year-round versatility of an all-season tire. Its long-wearing silica-based tread compound, asymmetric tread with zigzag grooves and 3D sipes, and optimized footprint are all designed for a perfect blend of year-round grip, sharp handling, long, even wear, and a quiet, comfortable ride. The Yokohama Geolandar CV 4S comes in with SimpleScore ratings of 8.5 for traction, 8.6 for handling, 9.0 for longevity, and 8.7 for an overall average. Yokohama covers the Geolandar CV 4S with a 60,000 mile limited manufacturer’s tread life warranty. With its combination of durability, low noise, ride comfort, and confident winter traction, the Geolandar CV 4S is a great value in an all-weather tire for light trucks, SUVs, and crossovers.
The Yokohama Geolandar H/T G056 is an all-season tire for light trucks, SUVs, and crossovers that is designed to deliver Grand Touring levels of road manners, ride quality, and low noise along with the versatility of year-round traction. The Geolandar H/T G056 is in it for the long haul, with a 70,000 mile limited manufacturer tread life warranty, an advanced tread compound, adaptive shoulder blocks, and a flat footprint for even wear properties as well as excellent braking and control. Yokohama’s Endurocore construction of dual body plies and a full nylon cap give the Geolandar H/T G056 great stability on the highway and real durability. Its symmetric tread pattern, a network of 3D sipes, and a system of circumferential and angled grooves ensure great performance on wet or dry pavement. The Geolandar H/T G046 gets solid ratings in our SimpleScore system, with 8.5 for traction, 8.6 for handling, 8.4 for longevity, and an overall average SimpleScore of 8.5.
The Geolandar CV G058 is designed to offer complete confidence for drivers of minivans, crossovers, and SUVs, with an all-season tread pattern that features hundreds of 2D and 3D sipes for enhanced grip in wet or wintry weather, and a silica-enriched polymer blend tread compound for better traction on wet roads as well as long wear. Speaking of long wear, Yokohama covers the Geolandar CV G058 with a 65,000 mile limited manufacturer tread life warranty (32,500 miles for staggered fitment rear tires). Chamfered ribs ensure even contact with the road surface to help extend tread life, and its staggered multi-pitch tread design is computer-tuned to cancel certain frequencies and overtones, keeping road noise to a minimum. When it comes to SimpleScore rankings, the Geolandar CV G058 weighs in with 8.4 for traction, 8.6 for handling, a near-perfect 9.9 for longevity, and an overall average of 8.9.
Designed for the perfect balance of off-road tenacity, highway road manners, and civility, the Yokohama Geolandar A/T G015 is an all-terrain tire for light trucks, Jeeps, SUVs, and crossovers. For off-road performance that’s confident and tough, there’s Yokohama’s proprietary Enduro Compound for long wear and damage resistance, with an all-terrain tread pattern that includes aggressive tread blocks, notched shoulders, and circumferential and angled grooves with EdgeTec design to push mud, debris and snow out of the tread for dependable traction. The Geolandar A/T G015 is available with an outlined white letter sidewall for select sizes, a touch of style that looks great on any truck or SUV. The Geolandar A/T G015 is durable, too – Yokohama stands by this tire with a 60,000 mile limited manufacturer tread life warranty (50,000 mile for LT-metric sizes). SimpleTire’s SimpleScore ratings for the Yokohama Geolandar A/T G015 are 8.6 for traction, 8.6 for handling, 8.5 for longevity, and an overall average SimpleScore of 8.6.
