Review on Yokohama BluEarth-A AE-50 215/65 R17 99V summer by Janis Skrindzevskis ᠌

Revainrating 3 out of 5

There are disadvantages, but the product is usable.

Well, now the details. The tires were on the car when I bought it. The car is the top Tiguan of 2022. Honestly, I expected to see something like the Continental in a car, but not Yoku. Before that, there was a much more budgetary crossover, but there was Conti CrossContact (it seemed to be called that) at the 18th "radius". And then 18 radius and, accordingly, Yoka. That is, if you do not need a lower profile, then you can ride this one. I changed the rubber almost immediately, because it was winter on the nose, I put Velcro, so I didn’t manage to test Yoka right away. From here all my impressions arose after its installation in the spring and the first trips. The only plus from rubber is that when I had to drive 20 km along a road that was killed in the trash, where the pits were with sharp asphalt edges, the rubber withstood it. Other than that, I didn't see any positives. In wet weather, the rubber becomes slippery, on the tram lines the car went into a skid at a speed of about 5 km / h. Seriously? In general, confidence in a car on these wheels is only on good dry pavement, otherwise tears. And the rubber is just wildly noisy. After the winter, I thought for a long time that it would run in. Drove a thousand and a half - not okkatalas. The last run of 300 km ended in a wild headache. My passengers still demanded air and open windows, generally tin. With closed at least a little more comfortable. Rubber does not ride well on the ground, hard, demolishes. The tread (it would seem, how, it is almost non-existent) has gained clots, the second day I drive loudly clattering, as if on spikes. I thought maybe I caught a self-tapping screw, drove to a tire fitting, it seems not, everything is fine. In general, don’t buy it yourself, you got it for free - go, there’s nothing right to throw it away, we don’t have it.

Pros
  • The biggest advantage is that I did not buy this rubber, it was installed on the car, and I don’t feel sorry for it.
Cons
  • Everyone didn't like it. I did not find any merits from the word rubber at all.
