Yokohama BluEarth Winter V906 SUV 225/55R18 102V XL Winter Tire

Yokohama BluEarth Winter V906 SUV. FEATURES AND BENEFITS: Winter weather traction; Enhanced controllability; Longer-lasting tread life; . OVERVIEW: The Yokohama BluEarth Winter V906 SUV is a performance, winter tire made for SUVs.The model provides excellent winter-weather traction. The directional tread pattern and the winter compound improve traction on ice- and snow-covered road surfaces. In this manner, the ideal tread design can easily maintain road contact even in harsh winter conditions, while the winter compound keeps the rubber flexible in freezing temperatures. The model can resist hydroplaning, thanks to the wide grooves on the tread area. They eliminate water and slush from the footprint, promoting a safe winter performance.The directional tread pattern also increases overall controllability. The direction tread pattern manages to follow the road surface at all times. It improves steering responsiveness and driving stability. On the other hand, the large shoulder blocks, the siping detail, and its wide grooves firmly grip the road surface, keeping forward motion. Wide shoulder block also boots cornering, while the siping detail shortens the braking distance by creating friction when braking. This combination gives the driver full control over the vehicle, guaranteeing a safe driving experience.The Yokohama BluEarth Winter V906 SUV offers a longer-lasting tread life. This directional tread pattern can evenly distribute the forces of acceleration, cornering, and braking along the tread area. The special compound slows the treadwear rate down. As a result, this resists irregular and premature wear formations, which leads to lengthened service life and usability. 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.
