Pros
- Very good quality tires. I bought it for the first time on a santafe then it was P17. Now I took P19 to Cherry Exid. Holds the road very well on snow and on ice and in a snowdrift. It drips just fine!
Cons
- did not find

Description of Yokohama iceGUARD SUV G075 225/65 R17 102Q winter
Winter studless tire Yokohama IceGUARD G075 is designed for crossovers and SUVs in need of reliable grip in harsh winter conditions. The IceGUARD G075 combines the cutting-edge technology of the iceGUARD and iby winter tires for SUVs and SUVs Geolandar.
The Yokohama Ice Guard SUV G075 winter tire was developed to replace the Geolandar I/T-S, a popular model that had some drawbacks. The most significant of these were grip properties, significantly improved in the novelty. The use of the latest technologies and materials allowed it to surpass its predecessor in most other driving characteristics.
Universal drainage grooves To a large extent, grip on winter surfaces has been improved due to the multifunctionality of the grooves running between the blocks and ribs of the tread. In addition to drainage, these elements perform other functions. In particular, the longitudinal grooves of the zigzag shape, providing a contact patch with additional edges, improve grip on an icy surface. In addition, this design at their intersections allows the tread to better cling to the snowy surface, due to the ability to grip and hold snow.
High control accuracy Another advantage over the previous model is the increased control accuracy. This parameter was also improved due to the features in the design of the running part of the tread. A wide, unbreakable rib runs along its center, resistant to deformation, like the shoulder blocks. These elements provide a faster transfer of transverse acceleration forces to the supporting frame elements. As a result, the tire reacts almost instantly to the actions of the driver, giving the process of driving a car with precision and transparent feedback.
Sipes in all areas of the treadCompared to the previous model, the sipe density has been significantly increased. The miniature slots are spaced a few millimeters apart, as are the engagement edges they form. This was made possible thanks to the 3D design of the lamellas. This design prevents them from closing under the influence of the weight of the car, and in addition, it limits the mobility of the blocks, which has a positive effect on handling and maneuverability on various types of surface.
Optimized Rubber CompoundMost of the traction on ice comes not from tread design, but from some of the properties of the rubber compound. It contains components that allow the tire to absorb moisture from an icy surface. Such "drying" of the contact patch ensures 100% use of all the possibilities of the running part of the tread. In addition, the composition of the compound includes special polymers. With their help, the tire literally sticks to the icy surface, fitting even the smallest bumps as tightly as possible. This property is maintained even at very low ambient temperatures. Evaluate the effectiveness of...

Pros
- holds the road quietly
Pros
- quiet
Cons
- fails miserably as a road indicator
Pros
- The cabin is very quiet (there are no spikes), and the vehicle's handling and braking are satisfactory. Slowly navigates through the cracks on the roadway. They gave me the option to choose the size, and I chose the largest one available because I wanted the rubber to be large enough that it would not come into contact with the body or the suspension even when the wheel was turned to its most extreme angle.
Cons
- To ensure that the wheels were perfectly balanced, a large number of weights (up to 200 grams each) were utilized. However, there is still a thumping at speeds more than 120 kilometers per hour. When travelling on a wavy surface, there is a certain "jumping" that occurs.
Pros
- Soft, quiet, good road holding.
Cons
- No
Pros
- Calm and comfortable amid the snow
Cons
- Despite what the reviews say (I have read them), and despite the seller's best efforts, it does not slow down when it is driven on ice. It is quite evident that no one can overturn the physical rules, yet her behavior on ice in the most recent instances following a snowfall has left me feeling unsettled.
Pros
- Price Confidence when on the highway
Cons
- I was sold new tires that are more than a year and a half and a half old. This is the only negative that has been discovered so far.
Pros
- Handling, even on ice, balancing two wheels with no weight at all.
Cons
- Did not reveal
Pros
- Price Confidence While Driving
Cons
- My new tires, which are more than 1.5 years old, were sold. This is the only negative found thus far.
