Yokohama produce a new tyre specifically for vans

Year-Round Performance for Commercial Drivers from Yokohama Tyres from Japanese manufacturer Yokohama have long been renowned for performance and safety under all conditions. The marque’s expertise and reputation is also available to the light commercial market, with a range of three patterns aimed at van drivers across all conditions and circumstances.

First in the commercial range is the RY818 tyre. Aimed predominantly at the urban delivery user, it features a flat tread pattern to maintain grip and safety under all vehicle load conditions while the design ensures exceptional water clearance in wet weather.

Its construction means that it will withstand the daily rigours of multiple deliveries, with its specially-designed kerbing rib protecting against sidewall damage, as well as resisting wear and generating long life and hence, value for money.

The Y354 is intended for vehicles carrying out longer journeys and in a variety of conditions. It is classed as an ‘All Season’ tyre, meaning that it will cope with all extremes of weather, so the operator can continue working come rain or shine. With its M+S and Snowflake markings, it is ready for all possible winter conditions.
