These are excellent tyres I had put them on my Etios a while back replacing just 2 year and barely 20k km Bridgestones. I couldn’t be happier. Now fortuner also running on Geolanders ATs.
Hi Abhishek, good to hear about the feedback on the Yokohamas. I am using a set of Earth 1s on my Jazz AT. Suffered an unexpected puncture on a 4-laned road when a sharp object cut the sidewall and I was able to claim pro-rata warranty on it - quite a fuss-free experience. The benchmark would be a set of Michelin Primacy 3STs that lasted for 91k km (no kidding, 91000 km!) on my Polo GT diesel. Let’s see how well and long these Earth 1 lasts. 🙂 BTW those are Geolandars with an a not e! 😂
@@GaneshBalan Yokohama Earth1 has hard rubber and is very noisy, very similar to those cheapass CEAT securadrives. If you want good tyres, then the go for are Yohohama BlueEarth GT or RV02.
Must be a problem with a specific batch you bought. Never had road noise issue on mine on the Jazz, not with my friend’s car either. Your perception on road noise can also vary with someone else’s. But no comparison with stock tyres like Ceat, JK and Bridgestone.
hi am luking for base i10 nios face lift 2024 in tht r14 is available ....but in sportz N MAGNA its r15 ...is there any mailage will differ?????? could u pls explain it will be usefull fr gt a new one
Friend was contemplating between the Continental UC6, Earth 1 and the Michelin Energy XM2+. Got the Earth1 at a better deal so went with this. Been using the Earth1 on my Jazz and it has been a good experience thus far so that sort of sealed the deal. ☺️
@@abhishekschidgumpi2256 OEM is insufficient. During lane changes, the car tends to overshoot, which is not the case with the 175 sections. I was just asking out of curiosity. As of now, I'm quite happy with the 175 section tyres.
Jnanankur, you’re already a size up from the stock 165/65 to 175/65. A further upsize is not recommended dude. It can affect your fuel economy due to the wider tires and can potentially affect the wheel well clearance when taking turns (which you’ll have to confirm by installing the tires on the rim). Stick to 175/65 R14. More than sufficient.

@@GaneshBalan Wow 91k is a lot. good catch. in my defence. my keyboard suggest the words before completion and I seldom select .

There will be negligible mileage difference between the two variants.
@@GaneshBalan TQ SIR
Could have checked UC6 or Bluearth GT too

@@GaneshBalan 👍🏻 XM2+ is available now? I was not aware..
Hey! I'm currently using 175/65 R14s on my 2016 grand i10. Is it advisable to upgrade to 185/65 R14? Stock size was 165/65 R14.
175 is more than sufficient, 185 or above is just an over kill for the car , according to its engine power .
You can upgrade to 175/70/14 ,
wider ones will be heavy and will have impact on performance especially on 1st, 2nd gear. heavy tires also mean extra load on suspension. OEM is best

@@jnanankurmahanta8426 can you explain the overshoot?
