Yokohama winter tyres.

Yokohama tyre company have released and update that their winter tyres had “‘excellent response” which were highly sold during December 2010.

Yokohama Spokesman said “While last winter’s snowy and icy conditions left many drivers stranded and while the early snow and ice also caused problems last November, motorists were more prepared than ever before. This was borne out by what YHPT terms “the excellent response to the introduction of the W.drive range to the UK.”

“The company has begun its attempts to differentiate its winter range from other seasonal products, stating that the W.drive are designed to give drivers “much more traction than a comparably-sized summer equivalent” in “all conditions”, not just when there is snow and ice on the roads.

“Yokohama says its winter tyres’ advanced compound responds to a wide range of temperature zones, providing better performance under various winter conditions. The tread pattern is designed to cope with wet and dry surfaces as well as snow and ice.”
