Product description & features

Yokohama’s BluEarth-GT AE51 is a summer touring tyre designed with wet-road braking in mind and a preference for longer GT driving. This tyre uses an asymmetric tread with inner and outer zones. For wet grip and reduced rolling resistance, Yokohama uses a proprietary rubber formulation with a silica and orange oil combination called Nano Blend Compound 2. Water is channeled through the tyre using wide, straight grooves, while the outer shoulder of the tyre remains unsupported in dry corners.

Yokohama’s touring line of tyres has moved from the BluEarth-A AE50 to the AE51. The centre ribs of the AE51 have a rounded profile that helps the upper surface of the tyre conversation with the road. This helps the tyre with even wear over time. At Tyres.co.uk, we have the BluEarth-GT AE51 in stock.

Highlights

  • Asymmetric tread with inner and outer zones
  • Wide, straight water channels
  • Silica and orange oil rubber
  • Rounded centre ribs for even wear

Tyre review for Yokohama BluEarth-GT AE51 215/65R16 98H
From earning my licence to now I have driven though every weather condition including freezing conditions and pouring rain, as well as extreme heat, and these tyres have never given me a problem! I have not noticed any real issue in fuel economy, and certainly not in the worse direction. Tyre noise has not been an issue either. Overall, I have never been happier about a set of tyres!

Tyre review for Yokohama BluEarth-GT AE51 215/65R16 98H
I bought these tyres many times before without problems. I have had to replace my front offside one due to damage and this one is different from the last. All of the tyres are in good condition, but this one is a lot louder than the others. I don't know if the manufacturer has changed the materials or the pattern of the tyre, but this one is definitely much louder. I am unsure about buying this brand again.
