Our take

The Yokohama TY213A is a highway all-season truck tire that stands out for its handling and load capacity, making it a solid choice for truck owners who need to carry heavy loads. However, its wet grip score of 5 is a significant drawback compared to the category average of 6.1, which may be a concern in wet conditions.

In terms of comfort and noise, the TY213A meets the category averages, providing a balanced ride typical of highway tires. However, the lack of a treadwear warranty is a downside, especially when competitors like the Firestone Destination LE3 offer a 70,000-mile warranty. This, combined with a treadlife score of 6, suggests more frequent replacements might be necessary.

When comparing with its competitors, the TY213A falls short in wet grip and treadlife. The Hankook Dynapro HT RH12 and Yokohama Geolandar H/T G056 provide better-rounded performance with warranties that can offer more peace of mind. If wet weather performance is a priority, these alternatives might be worth considering.

Overall, the TY213A is best avoided in regions with frequent rain due to its subpar wet grip. Truck owners focused on load capacity and handling might find it adequate, but those seeking longevity and wet performance should look elsewhere, like the Firestone Destination LE3 or Hankook Dynapro HT RH12.

Pros

  • Handling score of 7.5 keeps it competitive with the segment's average, making it reliable for highway cruising.
  • Comfort and noise scores both meet the category average of 6.5, ensuring a balanced ride without excessive road noise.
  • Load index of 215 supports heavy-duty applications, suitable for trucks carrying substantial loads.

Cons

  • Wet grip performance is notably below average, making it less suitable for regions with frequent rain.
  • Wet grip score of 5 is below the category average of 6.1, which could be a concern in rainy conditions.
  • No treadwear warranty provided, unlike competitors like the Firestone Destination LE3, which offers a 70,000-mile warranty.
  • Treadlife score of 6 falls short of the category average, indicating potentially more frequent replacements.
