Yokohama Geolandar H/T G95A

Inspire limited confidence and do lose grip – Have these tyres on a 2017 Subaru XV 2.0i automatic. I drive highways as well as curvy European country roads in all weather conditions. I must say the tyres are not impressive and I frequently get loss of grip in wet weather, on sharp turns and roundabouts even at low speed. The tyres have 35000km in them. I cannot imagine driving aggressively with these tyres and I will gladly replace them with a safer option.  Show details

Good run 68,000+ km – I have these on Subaru XV. Always serviced with Subaru every 6 months. They rotate tires, balance and align. Never been off road. Always on paved roads with office traffic in Melbourne. When cornering at high speeds or cornering with acceleration they do squeal. It was fun at the roundabouts. At slow speeds they were quite. Keep in mind this… Read more

is an all-wheel drive:

Never lost grip. I do accelerate considerably. Even on wet roads.

It was cool to make a quick start and leave other cars behind at traffic lights on rainy days.

Never had any issues.

It is time to replace.

After 5+ years and 68,000+ km I think they are very good.

Reasonable tyre but will choose others next time – I've had a good run with a set on my Subaru Outback. Mostly highway with a few short trips on gravel (sometimes rough). However when there was about 6mm of tread left, the front left tyre started leaking with tread separation. I will get more out of the other three.  Show details

Great Set of Tyres – Worn out front tyres therefore needed replacement. Great deal at Bob Jane, 4 tyres for the price of 3. Quite durable and soft going. Quiet runs for the car and great grip during wet weather operations. Very good value for the quality you are getting. Yokohamas are great quality tyres  Show details

Consistently reliable – I have driven exclusively on G95s or the very similar G900s for the last 15 years. Most of my miles are easy highway running but each year I spend a couple of weeks on some very ordinary roads and tracks in outback NSW, Qld and South Australia. (Corner Country, Innaminka to Birdsville via Cordillo, Bourke to Hungerford, Hungerford to Thargomindah,… Read more

Thargomindah to Sturt NP via Bulloo Downs, Flinders Ranges, Arkaroola etc.)

Perhaps I have been lucky but I have never had a tyre failure and can count the number of punctures on one hand, none of them attributable to tyre shortcomings. I am alert and drive conservatively in these situations. Despite the rough treatment I get 80000 plus km out of them and the only tyre squeal I have experienced has been on the smooth concrete floors of underground carparks.

I have just fitted a new set on my Subaru Forester for a trip to Diamantina NP and Mt Moffat in Carnarvon National Park. They cost me $1000. When looking for new tyres I suggest shop around and be wary of the big-name tyre retailers.

Long wearing but prone to punctures – Had one tyre (20,00kms done) blow out at 80kms per hour after puncture. The whole side wall disintegrated! Two independent tire firms said this was unusual and should be replaced by Yokohama. The rest lasted till 60,000 km when repeated punctures caused me to consider change, even tho some tread left. Squeal easily with cornering on bitumen. I do… Read more

10% of my journeys on dirt so they may just be better on only bitumen. Changing brand after writing to Yokohama Aus. about side wall but did not even reply to my letter. Not cheap tires.

long lasting and low maintenance – I have just done 80,000kms with probably another 20,000kms left in them. No punchers or flats since new. Fitted to my MY2014 Subaru Outback. Recently I have been doing a few trips in the Australian Outback, so travelling around 2500kms in 5 days on bitumen and gravel road. In both cases the tyres (and car) handle the conditions really well.  Show details ·  1

Awesome tyres – These came with my Subaru Outback and I did over 70000 km in them. I have just bought a new set. I am very happy with them and would happily recommend to anyone. Tyresales.com.au had a pretty good deal and the transaction process was painless. Tyres cost just over 1k  Show details ·  1

There are other alternatives – The Subaru Outback had them standard and they did averagely. Grip in the wet and dry is good, but hit the gravel for too long and puncture after puncture. Due to a trip to the Flinders we had 3 punctures and the tires have only lasted 40,000km. They are quiet for the most part, but wear is poor. There are better alternatives, after all this is an… Read more

expensive tire, however drive them in town a lot and they will do you fine. The same tires on the XV we own are serving us very well, don't push them too hard, and keep them off the road and they are a great tire. Should last 70,000.

Good wearing tyre for highway – 225/55/17, on a Forester 55000 km 95% highway 5% gravel etc. Original tyres. Best wear I have had, but thought grip left a little to be desired. No punctures, even hit some pretty rough holes and a sleeper on freeway, but forced change due to alignment causing uneven wear. I was close to buying again but cost and forums helped me decide on different brand.
