December 19, 2017 How to Stay Safe Off Road Geolandar Mud Terrain G003

HOW TO STAY SAFE OFF-ROAD
Driving through muddy terrain


Taking your 4WD or SUV off-road is a thrilling way to spend a weekend. Once you’ve known the freedom of driving across a riverbank or along a remote dirt track to a secluded beach, it’s difficult to remember a time when you were confined to the highway.

However, off-roading does carry risks, particularly if you’re hit by inclement weather that can turn a dirt track into a muddy mess. Without the right tyres, you risk getting bogged or sliding into problem territory.

If you’re a serious off-road enthusiast, you need to get to grips with the Yokohama Geolandar M/T G003. Released in November 2017, this tyre is one of Yokohama’s most exceptional performers and one ‘tough mudder’.


New to the off-road scene? Here’s a crash course in what gives this tyre so much traction out in the field.

The Geolandar M/T G003 is purpose built for the extreme off road adventurer and is designed to conquer some of the world’s wildest terrains. Its reinforced casing delivers crushing performance, not to mention intimidating looks and long tread life that inspires confidence.

8% Longer Tread Life compared to its predecessor the Geolandar M/T+ G001.

High Density Compound. Triple polymer provides exceptional wear performance.

Wide Flat Profile. Distributes stresses more evenly across the entire tread area, equating to longer wear.

Geo-shield Technology. A full nylon cap with multiple sidewall plies, steel belts and a turn up carcass for extreme traction and reliable protection.
