Yokohama Geolandar G96B
The Bottom Line
The Geolandar G96B is a reasonable choice for budget-conscious drivers who need reliable handling and dry grip. However, its wet grip performance and lack of a treadwear warranty are significant drawbacks, especially for those driving in wet climates.
Important Note
The lack of a treadwear warranty and low treadwear rating suggest a shorter lifespan, which could lead to more frequent replacements and higher overall costs.

Cons
