Yokohama BluEarth Winter V905
The Bottom Line
The BluEarth Winter V905 is a solid choice for drivers prioritizing snow traction, with its 8 score in this area. However, its weak wet grip makes it less suitable for regions with mixed winter conditions.
Important Note
Wet grip performance is subpar, which could be a concern for those facing frequent winter rain or slush.
Pros
- Snow traction score of 8 provides reliable performance in snowy conditions, aligning well with winter tire expectations.
- 3PMSF certification ensures it meets a minimum standard for severe snow service, which is crucial for winter driving.
- Handling score of 6.5 is decent for a winter tire, offering predictable control in cold weather.
Cons
- Wet grip score of 5.5 is below what you'd want for rainy winter days, making it less ideal in slushy conditions.
- No treadwear warranty means you'll need to budget for replacements without a mileage safety net.
- The Goodyear Ultra Grip Performance+ SUV offers better wet performance, which might be a better choice for mixed winter conditions.
