Yokohama Avid Tires

When you choose any of the Yokohama Avid tires, you can be sure of getting dependable, efficient, quiet, and comfortable tires. As premium passenger tires, they offer a great mix of all-season traction and long mileage. The Yokohama Avid family is synonymous with great wet traction, the use of 3D sipes, and innovative tread compounds. Select them if you want to turn everyday driving into a fun exercise.

Yokohama Avid Ascend LX

The Yokohama Avid Ascend LX offers exceptional grip and mileage as a premium all-season tire. While an advanced L2 compound ensures a balance between wet grip and long tread life, wavy 3D sipes and notches in the intermediate ribs provide suitable winter traction. An 85,000 mile limited manufacturer tread life warranty is on offer here, and a multi-pitch design decreases noise for a quiet ride. We found the Ascend LX suitable for an average SimpleScore of 8.97. This tire can be fitted on fast cars and minivans like BMW 220i, Chevrolet Cobalt, Chrysler PT Cruiser, Mazda 5, Nissan Sentra, and Porsche 911, to name a few.

Yokohama Avid Ascend GT

A unique Tri-Blend compound on the Yokohama Avid Ascend GT is responsible for high traction in wet and snow conditions, and it is suitable for an average SimpleScore of 8.6. As a hero component in this all-season tire, this Tri-Blend compound also combines with the asymmetric tread pattern for short braking and aggressive handling, especially in tricky situations. While an ultra-square contact patch and Triple 3D Sipes provide suitable year-round traction, an adaptive shoulder, and multi-tread design reduce noise for a quiet, comfortable ride. The limited manufacturer tread life warranty here ranges from 32,500 to 65,000 miles and fits performance-based vehicles like the Acura TL, Audi A4 Quattro, Chrysler TC Maserati, Honda Civic, and Infiniti I30.

Yokohama Avid ENVigor ZPS

The Yokohama Avid ENVigor ZPS is an all-season run-flat tire that offers a great mix of a quiet ride, great wet traction, and strong handling performance. Its best quality is that it can run at a maximum speed of 50 mph for up to 50 miles without air pressure, such that you never get stranded at any location. Adaptive 3D sipes and angled groove walls resist hydroplaning and provide suitable wet and snow grip throughout the tire’s life. The directional design ensures crisp and responsive handling, resulting in an average SimpleScore of 8.3. The tire is suitable for passenger and performance-oriented cars like the Acura RSX, Audi TT Quattro, BMX Z4, Jaguar X-Type, and Kia Forte.
