The All-Season Avid Touring radials were developed by Yokohama to be smooth, quiet and obedient while providing good wet and dry traction, long treadwear and overall value in order to meet the year round driving needs of imported and domestic coupe and sedan drivers.

The Yokohama Avid Touring radialā??s tread pattern features independent shoulder and intermediate tread blocks combined with continuous center ribs to enhance year round traction while providing ride comfort and reducing noise. The tireā??s four wide circumferential grooves are combined with lateral grooves and high density sipes to enhance traction on wet roads and in light snow. Internally, the Avid Touring features twin steel belts to provide strength and long term durability, Perflex Sidewall Construction to increase handling response and a Contoured Bead Design for better tire-to-rim fit resulting in a smoother ride.

Yokohama Avid Touring tires feature subtle blackwall styling and are available in 75-, 70-, 65-, and 60-series; S-speed rated sizes for 13" through 16" wheel diameters.
