Any of you have experience with the Yokohama Geolander M/T?

they come in the 285/75/16 size that I am interested in.

thanks

 

the geo muds are awesome.... they are probably not going to live up to their mileage warranty, especially if used offroad... i htink they are supposed to be a 40k tire... in real life look to it being about a 30k tire

 

how would you rate them against the pro comp X-Terrain? the X-Terrains do not come in a 285, but what have you heard?

 

i havent seen too many x terrains out there on the road... however the procomp mud terrain is a decent tire... the x terrain is supposed to be better... trail performance is probably in reality about the same..... all 3 of them are good tires.....

 

i've got the mt's and havent had any problems with them at all. low on the road noise, do well in mud, haven't done much rocks with them but gravel inclines at the job site and have handled them very well. rain they're not a problem, snow was fine. just remember that they're unidirectional, so you just rotate them left side front to back and right side front to back, and have a normal spare tire. i have a wild country offroad tire for a spare that i can put on any side.

 

I love their look. Anyone have any thoughts on how these would perform/last on a mostly on-road 4Runner?

 

Hi,

I have my 4R with a set of equivalent tires to Yokos M/T.
They are great in mud and rocks, and a little noisy on the road, but just need to turn on the music

I'll buy another set when I have to change mine, but this time bigger size.

Blizzard- indeed - killer pic!....was that at some sort of competition>? I noticed the "Pirelli" tape....

They are 30x9.5 I haven't rims to fit more tire except my road rims...

When street tires wear off I'll put some 32x11,5 on them...

It was an offroad game zone yes

I thougt they looked bigger. ANyway I was just thinking whether you prefered the narrower tire compared to 11.5. But since you are going for a wider tire nevermind.
(I was looking for pro cons on wider or narrow tires).
