New Yokohama Geolander M/T

-

Yokohama’s all-new Geolander M/T G003 has been engineered using the company’s proprietar­y Geo-Shield technology to give you ultimate traction whether you’re rolling down the highway or leaving the pavement behind.

Geo-Shield technology combines multiple sidewall plies, steel belts, a full nylon cap and a high turn-up carcass for the best possible traction and protection.

Features of the new M/T tyre include aggressive sidewall armour which not only creates a bold new look, it also delivers exceptiona­l protection from damage as well as enhanced traction off-road.

The tread pattern itself sees the block-to-void ratio and placement of sipes have been optimised for both off-road grip and shorter stopping distances on wet roads, while mud and stone ejectors protect against stone drilling and help keep the voids clear.

A new high density, triple polymer blend, tread compound and wide, flat profile which distribute­s stresses more evenly across the entire tread area offers longer life (Yokohama claims an improvemen­t of eight percent).

The new tread design also incorporat­es advanced variable pitch elements which provide a quantifiab­le (factory tests produced a 2.3 dB drop) reduction in ride noise on the road.
