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.

The Yokohama Geolandar G055 Blue Earth receives polarized reviews from users, standing out primarily for its exceptional cabin comfort, low noise levels, and improved fuel efficiency. However, a significant number of drivers report major safety concerns regarding poor wet-weather traction and lateral grip, along with mixed feedback concerning tread wear life.

Pros

  • Extremely quiet and comfortable ride quality
  • Improved fuel economy and low rolling resistance
  • Adequate dry road grip and handling
  • Good durability and balanced wear reported by select users

Cons

  • Dangerous or unreliable wet weather traction, particularly lateral grip and cornering
  • Prone to wheel spin on damp or wet surfaces
  • Accelerated or uneven tread wear reported on certain crossover and SUV models
  • High price tag relative to overall performance

Worth knowing

  • Drivers of mid-size SUVs like the Honda CR-V reported mixed results, ranging from excellent longevity to only average grip.
  • Owners of heavier or higher-torque diesel vehicles (such as the Kia Sportage and Subaru Forester XT) noted faster than expected rear and front tire wear.
