Yokohama Geolandar X-CV G99

The Yokohama Geolandar X-CV G99 is a solid choice for drivers who value comfort and quietness in a touring all-season tire. It matches the category benchmarks for comfort and noise, making it a good fit for long highway drives. However, its wet grip score of 5.5 lags behind the category average, which could be a concern for those frequently driving in wet conditions. In terms of handling, the G99 holds its own with a score of 7.5, providing reliable everyday performance. However, it lacks a treadwear warranty, which is a significant drawback compared to competitors like the BFGoodrich Advantage Control. The UTQG treadwear rating of 380 also suggests a shorter lifespan than the category average, impacting its cost-effectiveness over time. For those comparing options, the Continental ProContact TX and ContiProContact offer similar comfort levels but may provide better wet grip and treadwear warranties. The G99 is best suited for drivers who prioritize a comfortable and quiet ride over wet performance and long-term tread life. Skip the Geolandar X-CV G99 if you need strong wet performance or a treadwear warranty. Consider alternatives like the BFGoodrich Advantage Control for better long-term value and wet grip.
