Yokohama BluEarth S34 215/45R17, All Season, Touring tires.

Features and Benefits: All season traction; Enhanced controllability; Fuel efficient performance; Comfortable performance; Yokohama BluEarth S34 TiresThe Yokohama BluEarth S34 is a touring, all season tire made for passenger vehicles. The model offers excellent year round traction. The orange oil-enhanced all season compound and the asymmetric tread design achieve a better all weather performance. Durable compound elements maintain their flexibility throughout the year, thanks to the stronger rubber materials and orange oil additives. The detailed footprint firmly grips the road surface with extra biting edges, which are generated by the sipe placement. Four wider circumferential grooves are responsible for resisting hydroplaning, dispersing water and slush from the footprint. The ribbed block placement ensures the tire's constant road contact, which enhances its controllability. As a result, the tire greatly enhances its steering responsiveness and driving stability. This guarantees the driver's better control over the vehicle, as it offers a quick and accurate steering response. The tread's road surface optimizes the structural stability as well. The ideal shoulder block pattern and siping detail increase the cornering ability. They firmly grip the road during turns, upgrading the overall maneuvering safety. This tire was manufactured with the BluEarth technology. This technology utilizes the orange oil compound to decrease the rolling resistance. The pressure affecting the tire regulates the vehicle's necessary energy usage in order to keep the tires in motion. Lowering the rolling resistance allows the tire to significantly reduce the vehicle's fuel consumption and CO2 emissions. Not only does this ensure a fuel efficient driving experience, but it also minimizes the tire's carbon footprint. The Yokohama BluEarth S34 upgrades the comfort levels too. The reinforced polyester casing maintains the ideal tire shape under the driving pressure, ensuring the tire's close road contact. In this manner, the tire absorbs the shock of driving. This minimizes the road vibrations felt by the passengers, as it prevents road disturbances from reaching the vehicle's cabin. High driving comfort levels result in the tire's enjoyable driving experience. This tire model was manufactured as the original equipment tire of select vehicles. Manufacturers recommend changing tires every 10 years. As long as tires are properly stored before they are sold, the year of their manufacture will not shorten their service life.
