Yokohama Geolandar A/T-S on 16" Steelies

Patriot Metal · Jan 15, 2012

After three flats in a 1-1/2-month period (caused by freeway road hazards on two seperate tires) on my stock Goodyear Eagle's. I decided they are cursed and wanted to upgrade to a bigger size. So in come the Geolandar's ATS 225/70R-16. No rubbing, quiet, and stout. America's Tire bought my older 6K for $50ea. Enjoy the photos below. Next project after taxes will be the RRO 2" lift.

they look great!

I'm jealous...looks great! So you're saying Americas Tire buys used rubber back? I should check with them as well while I don't have as many miles racked up. Maybe I'll get my new tires sooner than I originally planned

Yes. Just ask them.

Love my Yoko's too!!! Nice looking Jeep.

Looks really good. I still have plenty of tread on my firestones so I won't be buying any new ones for a while.

Have you noticed any louder road noise with these tires?

Not really. Maybe 3% more noise, but rarely noticeable. I did a 3-1/2 hr. Vegas trip on Saturday I heard more wind noise than anything; just like when I have my Goodyear Eagle's. Fuel consumption was 1-2% more. Very happy with this purchase.

Nice....I especially like the Ruger medallion...
I am in the market for tires in the spring and will be doing the lift as well. Leaning towards the Firestone Destinations since my tire guy says they will get better mileage and wear than the Geos...

Dang those really fill out the fender wells nicely! really impressed. have found any noticeable mpg drop or acc. drop?

Cool choice of tire. How's the sound on pavement?

Have10000kms on mine.The fuel consumption has increased but the noise isn't any different then the goodyears. They handle good in the snow and ice, the noise is about he same as the goodyears.

I have a set of Geolandar's ATS's on my Cherokee and I absolutely love them. I currently have about 35k on them and they handle amazing on snow and ice and are quiet on the highway. They're probably around 50 % wear right now but I don't think I'll push them another 35k I like running on good rubber.
