Review on Yokohama Geolandar A/T G015 215/65 R16 98H all season by Mateusz Gniazdowski ᠌

Revainrating 2 out of 5

A bad product, not worth the money.

I want to make a reservation right away that we will talk about 2022-made rubber. Why am I clarifying, but there are just a lot of reviews that Thai-made tires are higher and more stable in quality, although company officials deny this. Wheels for the second generation Mitsubishi Pajero Sport were bought to replace the regular Dunlop. Tires bought fresh. They were literally a week old, so it’s not correct to talk about improper storage. The wheels were mounted on new disks and the actual operation began. On first impressions, the wheels are quite stiff. You feel every shovchik, every pebble with your fifth point and on the steering wheel. At the same time, a good ride. The track feels pretty strong. When leaving the city and exceeding the speed of 110 km / h, a vibration came out. Written off on a new not seated tires. Re-balanced the wheels. But again, as the speed increased, vibration appeared. So almost a season has passed. We decided to thoroughly deal with the vibration. Tires were tested for power heterogeneity, imbalance, etc. 3 out of 4 tires were in the "red" zone in terms of heterogeneity. Actually, it was clear that further all the dances with tambourines are useless. Because I work in one of the largest OD in 2022, it was decided to write an official complaint to the manufacturer with a request to replace tires. All technical acts were completed and sent to Yokohama. After some time, the answer came that the imbalance of the wheel in tolerance. Power heterogeneity is not regulated, and in general, traces of tread wear are visible on the tires, and GOST regulates the quality of only new tires. If only they were new. ABOUT! Alleluia! We buy tires to use! How can you identify a low-quality, defective product without using it? In general, Yokohama technical support specialists demonstrated their complete technical illiteracy. Vibration due to improper balancing usually occurs in a certain range of speeds. Here the vibration increases with increasing speed. What indicates the internal heterogeneity of the tire.

Pros
  • Relatively low price. Wear resistant. Not noisy
Cons
  • Manufacturing quality. Quite stiff and not very comfortable.
