The Yokohama BlueEarth AE50 is a max performance summer tire designed for passenger vehicles, offering a balance of grip and tread life. It's tailored for drivers who seek a dynamic driving experience without sacrificing fuel efficiency and comfort.
This tire distinguishes itself with its focus on wet performance. The tire's Nano Blend compound combines orange oil and silica to enhance flexibility and responsiveness in various temperatures, promoting confident handling and control during braking and cornering in wet conditions. The precision asymmetric tread pattern further contributes to wet weather performance through wide circumferential grooves that efficiently evacuate water, reducing the risk of aquaplaning. The tread pattern also features stable shoulder blocks to enhance dry grip and steering precision.
The BlueEarth AE50 incorporates features that contribute to a comfortable and quiet ride. An innovative pitch sequence technology is integrated into the tread design to suppress road noise for a more refined driving experience. Additionally, the tire's construction includes shoulder dimples to reduce air resistance, which aids in fuel efficiency. The Yokohama BlueEarth AE50 has a UTQG treadwear rating of 300.
