Review on Yokohama Bluearth-Es ES32 195/65 R15 91V summer by Micha Zikowski ᠌

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Wonderful quality, one hundred percent satisfied!

The photo on is somehow wrong, see the photo in the reviews. I purposefully looked for tires with a symmetrical tread, but Dunlop Touring T1 and Yokohama AE-01 did not like either the feel or the reviews / reviews. I was already desperate to find what I wanted, but then they brought ES32, and they turned out to be what we needed! In size 195/65R15, the sidewall is thicker than the Dunlop T1 and Nokian Green 2, but not as tight as the Pirelli and other Bridgestones. The nature of its deformation is almost like that of Nokian - the tire gently "breaks", damping a bump, and does not spring like a ball. The tread compound is of optimum hardness and behaves like rubber rather than plastic. Moreover, the tires turned out to be far from fresh by the date of production, lying around for more than a year somewhere. For the first season, only positive impressions, I would like to recommend this rubber to everyone! Wear is still invisible.

Pros
  • Rare to date, a symmetrical tread pattern that allows you to turn the rubber over if it eats up on one side. After the Cordiant, the RoadRunner felt an improvement in all respects of civilian operation, and did not test handling during extreme maneuvers. First of all, they are noticeably lighter. Immediately after installation, an improvement in smoothness is noticeable - it lays very gently. And it doesn't make noise at all. The second wave comes the understanding that the car consumes less fuel. There are absolutely no complaints about braking and handling on wet and dry pavement. They work great on dry pavement even at sub-zero temperatures, they do not tan at all!
Cons
  • For the first season, it was not possible to find flaws. I don’t drive on serpentines, but with the usual intercity with handling, everything is ok. They have a yellowish color, but I don’t care, I perceive this as a hint of orange oil, used in production according to the manufacturer’s stories. The only claim to comfort is that it was painful to drive on the primer killed by tractors, but I don’t know which tires would be better there and whether they affect these tires at all.
