Two scoring systems, side by side
Owner scores come from reviews found online; road-test scores come from instrumented tests. Where they disagree, it is usually a discipline owners rarely push to the limit.
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.

What owners like and dislike
Themes extracted from 1,645 owner reviews found online.
The Yokohama Geolandar A/T G015 is widely praised by users as a civilised, highly capable all-terrain tire that bridges the gap between highway comfort and off-road utility. Reviewers frequently highlight its exceptional wet-weather traction, impressive performance in light snow and winter conditions, and surprisingly low road noise compared to more aggressive competitors. While a minority of users report faster-than-expected tread wear or reduced performance in deep, sticky mud, the overwhelming consensus positions it as a reliable, value-driven choice for SUVs, crossovers, and light trucks.
Pros
- Exceptional wet-weather and rain traction
- Low road noise and smooth highway ride quality
- Strong performance in light snow and winter conditions (3PMSF rated)
- Good light off-road, gravel, and dirt track capability
- Attractive, rugged tread styling with solid durability for many users
Cons
- Struggles in deep, sticky mud and wet clay
- Some reports of faster tread wear or hardening rubber compound over time
- Softer sidewalls on certain specs can result in a slightly floaty or numb steering feel under heavy loads
- Occasional complaints of reduced traction on solid ice
Worth knowing
- Users running LT load-range E specifications on heavy trucks or vans noted a stiffer ride and occasionally softer, more floaty steering responses, though they praised the added load stability.
- Compact and mid-size SUVs (such as the Subaru Forester, Honda CR-V, and Suzuki Jimny) heavily benefited from the balanced on-road manners and improved confidence in rough weather.
- Owners utilizing larger sizes or running them on utility vehicles frequently highlighted their capability on gravel farm tracks and unimproved mountain roads.
