Yokohama BluEarth-GT AE51 is a premium summer tyre. It guarantees excellent performance, which is due to the advanced technologies used. It is the successor to the BluEarth-A AE-50 model.
The BluEarth-GT AE51 model uses a special mixture. It includes orange oil. The effect of this treatment creates an energy-saving tyre that brakes well both on dry and wet surfaces.
BluEarth-GT AE51 has an asymmetrical tread. Its shape ensures excellent water drainage and provides high driving comfort. A car equipped with this tyre model is very stable and predictable. The fight against aquaplaning is supported by a wide zigzag groove. The tyre is very rigid, and the profile is shaped to ensure comfort and perfect weight distribution.
The AE51 is installed in new cars of the compact class (Mazda 3, Toyota Prius) and premium class (Lexus ES). This is proof of the trust that car manufacturers have placed in the Yokohama brand. It is not unfounded. This tyre brand is over one hundred years old.
Yokohama is one of the leading car tyre manufacturers. Models bearing its logo are used, e.g. during demanding races (e.g. La Mans). Moreover, the brand manufactures tyres for commercial, heavy, agricultural and industrial vehicles. However, the company’s area of activity is much larger. It also makes fire, construction and even space equipment (rocket parts).
