From owners

Pros, cons & observations

Themes extracted from owner reviews across retailers and review sites — not the opinion of TireWheelGuide.

Tire A Yokohama Geolandar G91F

Not enough owner reviews yet to extract themes.

Tire B Yokohama Geolandar G98A

The Yokohama Geolandar G98A is generally regarded as a mediocre OEM tire that provides acceptable dry-road handling and comfort for daily commuting. However, it is widely criticized for its premature tread wear and inconsistent performance in wet or wintry conditions, leading to a low rate of repeat purchase among owners.

Pros

  • Satisfactory dry-road grip and handling
  • Quiet and comfortable ride quality
  • Decent fuel efficiency
  • Predictable steering feedback under normal conditions

Cons

  • Significantly premature tread wear
  • Poor traction and instability in wet conditions
  • Unsafe performance in snow and icy environments
  • High price-to-longevity ratio

Observations

  • Users of Mazda CX-5 and CX-8 models frequently report the tire reaching the end of its service life between 20,000 and 30,000 kilometers.
  • Some owners noted structural issues such as premature cracking or bursting of the sidewalls within 20,000 miles of use.

How do we compare tires?

Every category score blends two independent signals. 60% comes from professional tire tests (braking distances, lap times, noise measurements) normalized against the best tire in each test and weighted toward recent tests. 40% comes from thousands of owner reviews collected from retailers and review sites. When a tire has only one of the two, we use what exists and say so.

Community buzz from Reddit and forums is shown for context only — it never changes the score.
