Yokohama BluEarth-Van All Season. FEATURES AND BENEFITS: All season traction; Enhanced controllability; Longer-lasting tread life; Fuel-efficient performance; . OVERVIEW: The Yokohama BluEarth-Van All Season is a highway terrain, all season tire made for commercial vans.The ribbed tread design and the all season compound improve the tires performance throughout the year. The optimized tread elements firmly grip the road surface with extra biting edges, while the all season compound keeps the rubber flexible in changing temperatures. This combination ensures the tires dry, wet, and winter-weather grip. Circumferential grooves effectively eliminate water and slush from the footprint. These elements resist hydroplaning and ensure safe performance on wet roads.The ideal tread design, with wide blocks, enables the tire to keep close road contact at all times. As the tire maintains continuous surface contact, it improves steering responsiveness and driving stability. In other words, the tire increases its steering response time and accuracy to the drivers instructions, while the structure is secured as well. At the same time, the wide shoulder blocks boost cornering and maneuvering. As a result, these elements guarantee a safe driving experience on highways.The model offers a fuel-efficient performance. The ideal tread design and the durable rubber compound work together to reduce the rolling resistance. It is the pressure that determines how much energy the vehicle needs to keep the tires in motion. By lowering the rolling resistance, the tire decreases fuel intake levels and CO2 emissions. This results in a fuel-efficient and environmentally friendly driving experience.The Yokohama BluEarth-Van All Season extends its service life. The ribbed tread design evenly distributes the driving pressure along the tread area, while the special silica compound slows the treadwear rate down. This combination actively prevents irregular and premature wear formations along the tread area. As a result, this tread design and the wear-resistance compound guarantee a longer-lasting tread life. Manufacturers recommend changing tires every 10 years. As long as tires are properly stored before they are sold, the year of their manufacture will not shorten their service life.
