Yokohama has quietly dropped one of the more compelling all-season highway tires in the light truck and SUV segment, the GEOLANDAR H/T4, and it arrives in a commanding 62-size lineup spanning from 15” to 22” wheel diameters.
This isn’t a reinvention; it’s a refinement. The H/T4 is the latest evolution of a lineage that’s earned its stripes on asphalt and adverse conditions alike. Engineered for drivers who haul, tow, and commute, it strikes that elusive equilibrium between rugged capability and civilized daily manners. Also, the dual sidewall boasts a rugged upper sidewall on one side to better guard against road hazards and a traditional upper sidewall design on the reverse.
The tread architecture does the heavy lifting: dual lug and wide circumferential grooves manage wet evacuation and snow traction simultaneously, while large center blocks anchor grip across varied surfaces. Triple 3D sipes reign in tread block movement, extending wear life without surrendering dry-road precision, which is an intelligent compromise rather than a forced one.
“The H/T4 is our latest generation highway tire, following a long line of successful predecessors in this segment,” said Kevin Nguyen, Yokohama Tire manager of product planning. “It’s built to provide excellent on-road durability with a smooth, quiet ride, perfect for truck and SUV drivers seeking a balance of long mileage, comfort, and all-season traction. Plus, it carries a 70,000-mile limited treadwear warranty for Euro-metric sizes and a 55,000-mile limited treadwear warranty for LT-metric sizes.”
Inside your vehicle’s cabin, the tire’s multi-pitch tread variation keeps acoustic intrusion admirably subdued, and high-rigidity shoulder blocks sustain that composure well into the tire’s lifecycle, not just when it’s fresh off the road.
Yokohama is clearly betting on this rubber’s longevity, and that confidence is well-founded. It’s now available at www.yokohamatire.com.
