AQUA-PROOF Tread Design
Exemplifying YOKOHAMA’s .drive series standards, the A.drive employs
specially configured Triple Wide Straight Grooves that power its
excellent water evacuation capabilities and provide triple straight safety
no ordinary tyre can match.

An effective tread compound, combined with silica, that minimizes the
effects of temperature differentials* is essential for stable and life-long
grip in both wet and dry conditions. A.drive, with ZERUMA, YOKOHAMA’s
patented silica dispersal agent, offers all these advantages and more.

YOKOHAMA’s tyre designers are justifiably proud of the way the A.drive’s
construction parameters mean this tyre offers traction like no other. The
combination of the Triple Wide Straight Grooves’ ‘quiet running’ tread
pattern and YOKOHAMA’s advanced tread compound provides drivers
with world-class performance no matter whether conditions are wet or
dry. Based on a ‘Slim-Long’ design for optimum road and tyre contact
pressure, grip and water evacuation functions are raised to new heights.
*YOKOHAMA recommends changing to winter tyres in cold conditions.
