BluEarth Winter V905 Tyres description & features

The Yokohama BluEarth Winter V905 is a winter tyre designed with a directional V-shaped tread for improving traction on snow, slush, and rain. The tread pattern assists in exposing fresh edge and surface grip as it displaces slush and water away from the centre and ashy and snow packed edges with jagged bite. The tread also utilises a winter specific, high-density silica compound, which is blended with Yokohama’s orange oil, to sustain performance at lower temperatures.

The sidewall is imprinted with the 3PMSF and M+S symbols. The former denotes certification for performance in severe snowy conditions, while the latter indicates performance in mud and snow. The BluEarth has optimal performance in temperatures at or below 7°C. The rubber compound helps maintain grip performance on cold, dry roads. Tyres.co.uk sells the Yokohama BluEarth Winter V905.

Highlights

  • Directional V-shaped tread
  • Winter silica and orange oil compound
  • 3PMSF and M+S markings

Tyre review for Yokohama BluEarth Winter V905 255/55R18
Considering the price, they are very good. They have good traction and rolling resistance with winter tyre road noise, although there may be other tyres that are better.

Amazing. I have driven on icy, snowy and frosty roads for almost an entire winter and my car has not slipped or hesitated. I would definitely recommend these tyres and will certainly buy them again when the time comes.

As we have moved to the countryside, getting winter tyres felt appropriate as we appreciated the extra road grip for the more challenging roads. This was our first experience buying tyres online and it was smooth. We will for sure recommend this to our son. Thanks!

I changed the tyres on my Tesla Model Y, which is rear-wheel drive, because my summer Bridgestone tyres were awful in the snow. I chose Winter tyres to give me better grip. These new ones are excellent. The car goes through deep water and snow without any issues. The only downside I suppose is the added road noise, but you get used to it very quickly. I will change to summer tyres in April, but I am genuinely happy with these and the price was good. I strongly recommend these for a Tesla.

Bought as winter tyres to use during driving in Scotland. The grip, and confidence they give you, is unreal. They are my first winter tyres, and I wish I had got them sooner. As my first set, perhaps all winter tyres perform this well? I would purchase them again, no questions asked.

Tyre review for Yokohama BluEarth Winter V905 205/50R17
At the moment these tyres look okay, time will tell if they are just as good as the Vredestein Snowtrac 5s I just replaced. They look to be about the same as the Vredestein tyres. So far they are pretty quiet and have good grip in the wet. I still haven't tried them in the snow or ice, but I expect good performance because they are Yokohama's.

Tyre review for Yokohama BluEarth Winter V905 205/50R17
Judging by the brand, I was sceptical about the Yokohama tyres because I hadn't experienced them before, but I must say that they are great. These tyres are fitted with tiny rubber spikes that help with grip. I have a specific junction I visit on an industrial estate with an extremely slippery and wet road surface, and I conduct my tyre tests here because the back end of my car tends to slide a bit. However, with these Yokohama tyres, even when I am aggressive and try to make the car slide, it actually snaps back and continues driving straight. I will certainly buy these again.

These tyres were mounted on my 4x4 Toyota Alphard, and they were tested in the recent heavy snowfalls. Even under the tough conditions, they provided good traction; I managed to reach the highest pub in England. I have no experience with other brands, and so I can't compare them to other competitors.

Tyre review for Yokohama BluEarth Winter V905 205/50R17
These tyres show a massive improvement in grip during wet and colder weather. They were great for commuting in the difficult winter conditions. There's a small impact on fuel economy - typically, I get 38-39 mpg in my 2-litre petrol car, but with these tyres, I average 36-37 mpg. However, it is a small trade-off for the improved grip and handling on slush and snow in winter months.

Tyre review for Yokohama BluEarth Winter V905 255/55R18
Though winter just began and it is still early in the season, I have some positive impressions already. I notice that the steering is not very 'mushy' like most winter tyres are and so it feels good. I have yet to test them on snow, but for wet, damp, and icy conditions; the tyres grip surprisingly well. They ride smooth and are quiet. I suspect the fuel economy is on par with the Continental summer tyres we usually have, but I have yet to check it myself.
