Geolandar G95A

The Yokohama Geolandar G95A is an all-season tire designed as original equipment for vehicles like the Subaru Forester and XV Crosstrek, as well as other light- and medium-duty vans, trucks, pickups, CUVs and SUVs. It caters to drivers seeking a balance of dependable grip and reasonable tread life.

The Geolandar G95A features a symmetric tread pattern with angled blocks and dense sipes to enhance grip, providing confident handling in dry, wet, and even light snow conditions. Wide grooves in the tread design help to expel water, reducing the risk of hydroplaning on slick surfaces. Rounded shoulder blocks contribute to enhanced dry pavement traction and cornering grip.

This tire achieves a UTQG treadwear rating of 320, suggesting a focus on delivering adequate tread life for its target segment. The construction incorporates twin steel belts and a polyester cord body, enhancing structural rigidity for stable handling and even pressure distribution, which minimizes flex during cornering.

While offering good dry traction and responsive steering, some reviews suggest that its wet and snow traction may not be exceptional compared to dedicated winter tires or other all-season options. Overall, the Yokohama Geolandar G95A is a suitable choice for drivers prioritizing a comfortable ride, all-season capability, and decent treadwear in a highway tire.
