The Yokohama G012 A/T is generally well-regarded as a highly capable all-terrain tire that excels in diverse conditions ranging from dry motorways to heavy off-road use, snow, and mud. Users frequently praise its robust sidewall protection, exceptional longevity, and ability to enhance all-wheel-drive capability, though minor compromises in wet traction during initial rainfall, cold-weather rubber stiffness, noise, and fuel economy are noted.
What owners say
No road-test results yet, so every score here comes from owner reviews found online.
How scores work
- Relative score
- 0–100. Blends road tests (60%) and owner reviews (40%) category by category, the same way on every TireWheelGuide page. With only one of the two, the missing half is estimated from it, so the score stays closer to average. It needs at least one road test or five owner reviews.
- Road tests
- 0–100 per score, from published tests, newer tests counting more. Each result is compared with every other tire in the same test, so a win against a strong field counts for more. The average tested tire gets 70, the best 100; with only one or two tests a tire stays nearer 70. The discipline rows show % of the best tire in that test.
- Owner reviews
- 0–100 from the owner reviews we found online, adjusted for how generously each site rates and scaled like the road tests: the average tested tire gets 70. With only a few reviews a tire stays near the average.
By owner reviews

Pros
- Exceptional tread life and long-term durability, with some users reporting up to 90,000 km and more
- Strong off-road capability with solid shoulders and reliable performance on unsealed roads, farm tracks, mud, and sand
- Excellent snow and winter weather performance, greatly enhancing 4WD and AWD capabilities
- Robust sidewall protection suitable for rough terrain
Cons
- Reduced traction requiring extra caution during the initial onset of rain on wet roads
- Stiffness in temperatures below 2 degrees Celsius affecting cold-weather and snow handling
- Slight compromises in road noise and fuel consumption compared to standard road tires
- Tendency toward understeer in the middle of wet corners
Worth knowing
- Users specifically noted that the tires complement the symmetrical AWD systems of Subaru Foresters and Outbacks effectively on unsealed and off-road routes.
- Drivers operating in rugged environments like the Scottish highlands and agricultural utility settings found the tires reliable across mixed dry, mud, ice, and snow conditions.
