The Avid Ascend GT from Yokohama is an all-season tire that’s designed for use on coupes, sedans, CUVs, SUVs, minivans, and performance oriented cars. Backed by a 65,000 mile limited manufacturer tread life warranty for standard fitments or the front position in staggered fitments, and a 32,500 mile limited warranty for the rear position in staggered fitments, the Avid Ascend GT’s triple 3D sipes and ultra-square contact patch promote even wear for a longer tread life. The Avid Ascend GT received a Good Design Award from the Chicago Athenaeum Museum of Architecture and Design, and utilizes a TriBlend rubber compound and asymmetric grooves for strong grip on wet and snowy roads.
