Anyone ever run Yokohama Geolander tires?

[Pathy415]

Just as the title says. Any experience with either the all season or the all terrains?

I'm leaning to the all terrains just in case I head up to the snow.

Thanks

Had a set on our R50 Pathy... They were good, but I had one that just wouldn't balance, so it was replaced undr warranty.

Swapped them out for a set of Pathfinder A/T's, and I actually preferred those (and they were cheaper).

Not recommended for snow Pathy. Never had them in dry or muddy off roading conditions. Maybe there they would perform well.

Well I saw some decent reviews on tirerack so was curious.

Pathy,
Have owned alot of Yoko's-running Parada Spec X on other ride currenlty. Never had a prob with Yoko's. I was going to buy the Geolander A/T's for winter but ended up going with Bridgestone Blizzak's. Friend of mine had the Geolanders on his 98 Pathfinder and really liked them. Not exactly the answer you were looking for but Tire Rack has some decent reviews on them and they seem to be pretty affordable.

I put the Yoko AT/S units on my 01 Pathfinder in February so not a lot of miles on them - They appear to work well in wet/dry so far here in Oregon for highway, some light off-road fishing trails and, a couple of trips up to the snow Mt. Hood.- Ride is quiet enough and they balanced out fine. Depending on where you are located, I don't think I would use them in place of dedicated deep mud/snow/ice tires though. As mentioned, they rate in the middle of the pack per the Tire Rack reviews and pricing was reasonable. Overall, IMHO, I guess I could say they area good all around use tire. I have been using the Yoko AVID V4S units on my Acura and have been very pleased w/ those.

The majority of my driving is on paved roads so the Yoko's will probably suit me well.

Thanks!

i have the geolander ats on my pathfinder and i love em.. i bought my car used and it already had them on and were like new 65 thousand miles later i went with the same tire and its never failed me.. we had a snow storm about 2 years back and i was the only one that made it to work through the snow.. in fact they asked me to go get everyone lol yea you cant go wrong with these tires

[Pathy415]

I went and read some more reviews of the tire and they were all pretty good for the most part. edogg, good to hear they're working great for you and lasted that long!

I hydroplaned twice today with my HT/S Geolanders. I didn't take off that quickly either!

I ran the Geolander AT/S I liked them they were good tires, I switched to General Grabber AT2s which are louder and more aggressive.

No problems doing light trails/mud with the AT/Ss (never did anything too rough or snow)

[Pathy415]

Well, I prob have another 6,000-10,000 miles left in the tires before I need a new set. I like the way the Geolander AT/S look but I'm still keeping my options opened and won't make a final decision till then.

Thanks all for the responses.
