Yokohama iceGUARD iG51v Tires
The Yokohama iceGUARD iG51v is a touring, winter tire made for passenger vehicles and SUVs. The tread design features a continuous center rib that maintains the tire’s surface contact throughout its performance. As a result, it upgrades the steering responsiveness and the driving stability, which ensures the driver’s full control over the vehicle even in harsher winter weather conditions.
The tread design’s high-density siping pattern and ideal shoulder block placement boost the maneuvering. The siping detail creates friction between the tire and the road surface, enabling the tire to shorten its braking distance significantly. The tread’s shoulder block design, on the other hand, boosts the cornering ability and power with additional biting edges. This enables the tire to increase the winter weather driving safety.
The Yokohama iceGUARD iG51v boosts the winter weather traction. The detailed directional tread design with the high-density interlocking and adaptive 3D siping detail and the all season compound boost the grip on the road surface, even on ice- and snow-covered road conditions. These sipes heighten the number of biting edges gripping the road, enabling the tire to boost the winter weather traction. The tread’s winter compound upgrades the rubber flexibility in colder temperatures, ensuring the tire’s colder weather gripping ability. The detailed groove pattern channels water and slush from the footprint, preventing hydroplaning in the process. This allows the model to securely perform in various winter conditions.
