About Us

The Yokohama Rubber Company is the seventh largest tyre manufacturer in the world.

Yokohama Tyre Australia Pty Ltd was established in 1976 as a consolidation of independent agents who had previously imported Yokohama tyres. Yokohama has warehouses in each Australian state as well as a network of some 500 tyre dealers throughout Australia. 

National distribution comes from Yokohama Tyres Brisbane, Yokohama Tyres Sydney, Yokohama Tyres Melbourne, Yokohama Tyres Adelaide and Yokohama Tyres Perth, and we focus on supporting three main retail channels: Tyres and More stores, Bob Jane T-Marts and independent Key Dealers.

Yokohama tyres are premium products and are priced to offer good value, with products consistently demonstrating superior performance and durability. This leads to less downtime for individuals and business and, more importantly, reduced costs per kilometre.
