Yokohama BluEarth-A AE-50 - User reviews

Hello, I have been a tyre owner for over a year now. I changed from Goodyears I think. Supposedly Blue Earth tyres improve performance including fuel burn, unfortunately I won't confirm or deny. It's hard for me to check. Certainly some difference (say on the level of 0.1/100), in the long run it is something noticable. The noticeable difference is certainly the noise level generated - or rather the lack of it - especially on the motorway. The version I have is tested up to a speed of 240km/h. The predecessor of AE, i.e. the AE01 version, has a declared maximum speed of 190km/h, so the difference is, depending on the version, 20-50km/h. Nevertheless, both this and the previous model are more silent. I have not encountered any difficulties when cornering at higher speeds - so they stick to the road, they are also durable. After all this time I have not found any signs of gridding (tyre wear). It is difficult to judge the external look of the tyre - I like it, subjective opinion. However, I do not think that the look of a tyre in particular is the most important parameter.

I bought this tyre at random, based on reviews on other foreign car websites. I was not disappointed. The tyre looks very well on the rim, has rim protection and reinforced sidewalls. A little underestimated brand. I would recommend buying from oponeo.co.uk . I am very satisfied.

Performs great on dry pavement - very good grip. Low rolling resistance and really quiet. It feels a bit soft, especially before putting it on the car, but this does not detract from it. I can't yet say anything about its wet grip, as I haven't driven on it in the rain yet :) A big plus for Oponeo - this is my third purchase from this shop and, as usual, everything was professional and fast.

They work great on both dry and wet roads. I put on brand new tyres back in March and on the road I was caught in a snow shower at 1-2 degrees plus. The tyres held up very well, and I didn't feel uncomfortable about not wearing winter tyres anymore. It's hard to say how long they last, as I've only covered 2500 km since putting them on. I recommend Yokohama tyres to everyone, because they really are great. I've used tyres from practically all the leading manufacturers (I have never had Goodyear) and so far I have the best opinion about Yokohama, Dunlop and Toyo Tyres. Michelins and Continental in my opinion are overrated. They are not better than the above mentioned brands when it comes to driving qualities, and they wear strangely fast, which I can understand, but they are totally unsuited to the sun, because after 3 years they fade and develop microcracks, and even though the tread could still be used, I lost trust in them and I reject their "faded" appearance. This is my remark that I park my car under a block of flats. To sum up, I recommend the Yokahama BlueEarth A AE 50 tyres. The inscription made in Japan still means high quality!

I have been using Yokohama AE50 tyres for several months now. So far I can say this much - they perform great on wet pavement as well as dry pavement. They give us a good grip even at low temperatures and in the rain on days like this. Now it will be warmer - and therefore better for these tyres. After all, they are summer tyres - not winter tyres. The tyre has several wheel rim protectors, which is certainly a plus. The tyre has very good noise reduction, which is certainly noticeable on the motorway compared with the previous tyre. The AE50 version (model) can cope with a Vmax of 210/240 km/h, which, from the characteristics of the tyre and the intended use - sports cars - is another plus. In general: quiet, good grip, durable after almost a year of use (I will let you know) how things will look after years.

Tires really recommendable. The only minor drawback is the noise on the highways which may disturb some users. I've heard louder. So there is no tragedy.

tires very round, well holding the road. Durability does not judge because of the small number of kilometers.
