Tire A

Yokohama Geolandar A/T G015

Mixed

Most owners praise the Geolandar A/T G015 as a quiet, comfortable all-terrain that works well on highways, in heavy rain and in snow. It also holds up well off-road and in light trails, and it looks good. Complaints include a harsh or stiff ride on some vehicles such as the Outback, road noise, soft sidewalls and a squirrely feel when towing, picking up pebbles in the tread, and a 1–2 mpg fuel economy loss.

“Upped the pressure to 43 PSI for a 1000 mile drive, still suffering about a 1-2mpg penalty but that could also have been due to the higher speeds (west TX speed limit of 80 mph). Got 'em off road on the rocks and they're obviously loads better than the stock SR-As out there. We'll see how they handle mud soon enough. Have 5K miles on these things so far and am satisfied. I'm not super happy per se but I'm satisfied. Jury's still out on whether I'd buy again. Will report back in another few thousand miles.”

“Tires RFID Tags I’ve been looking for a set of Yokohama Geolandar A/T G015 tires and contacted several shops while also checking prices online. I was surprised by how much the prices varied between sellers. I then contacted Juma Al Majid, which I think is the official dealer in the UAE. Their price was one of the highest I found. When I mentioned that I had found significantly cheaper options elsewhere, they asked me what prices I have found. After I shared the price range, they seemed surprised and advised me to make sure the tires had RFID tags. After looking into it, I understood that these tags are related to tire identification and compliance with UAE requirements. So, Are tires without RFID tags potentially less suitable for UAE conditions or more prone to damage? Or could they be essentially the same tires, with the price difference simply reflecting different sourcing, importation, or compliance costs? Read more”

“Changing tires (General Grabber AT3 vs Yokohama Geolandar A/T G015) Halloo I am about to pick my RR next month from the dealer and I am thinking if it is a good idea to change tires. Here is the context: I am buying the RR because I always wanted to drive a truck and I love American cars in general (I also have Mustang s197 V8). In fact I want to switch from Wrangler Sahara, which is a great car BTW, however after 4 years and only 20.000 miles I know I miss more comfort. The rest of my family even more ;-) 95% of my trips is on reagular roads, city cruising. Sometimes some rural paths (no heavy offroading). My Wrangler came with Duelers, which I replaced with Yokohama A/T G015. The difference was night and day as far as wet and cold. Here in POLAND we have two seasons: it is either hot and wet or cold and wet. Winter in my area is pretty light, however I go to the mountains once a year. So the question is: As I do not know how General Grabber AT3 works, but I trust Yokohoma G015, is the change the tires worth it?”

How do we compare tires?

Every category score blends two independent signals. 60% comes from professional tire tests (braking distances, lap times, noise measurements), each result compared with every other tire in the same test and newer tests counting more. 40% comes from owner reviews found online, adjusted for how generously each site rates. Both use one scale: the average tested tire gets 70, the best 100. When a tire has only one of the two, the missing half is estimated from the other and the score stays closer to average; with no road test and fewer than five owner reviews it gets no score yet.

Handling is the exception: road tests measure it inside the dry and wet scores, so its own row comes from owner ratings only and starts as less important.
