Yokohama E70 Decibel – 215/55 R17
Technology
The Yokohama E70 Decibel tyre is engineered with a noise‑reducing tread compound and a refined asymmetric tread design to deliver a smooth, quiet, and comfortable driving experience without compromising performance. Its tread pattern features wide longitudinal grooves, optimized circumferential channels, and strategically placed tread block edges that help evacuate water effectively, improve wet traction, and reduce road noise.
This innovative tread architecture promotes even pressure distribution across the tyre surface — resulting in uniform wear, extended tread life, and confident performance in a variety of driving conditions.
Product Description
The Yokohama E70 Decibel 215/55 R17 is a premium touring all‑season tyre designed for sedans and passenger cars where quiet ride quality and all‑around performance are priorities. It delivers a refined ride with improved wet and dry traction, responsive handling, and confident braking — making it ideal for daily commuting, highway cruising, and longer trips.
This tyre is perfect for drivers who value comfort, road silence, fuel efficiency, and balanced performance without sacrificing safety.
Comfort & Quiet Performance
E70 Decibel tyres are specially engineered to reduce road noise by using unique tread and compound technologies that soften and disperse sound waves as the tyre rolls. This results in a significantly quieter cabin experience — ideal for everyday driving and long‑distance travel.
In addition to low noise, this tyre also delivers excellent ride comfort and road stability.
Green & Reliable
Designed with low rolling resistance characteristics, the Yokohama E70 Decibel helps improve fuel efficiency and reduce CO₂ emissions while maintaining dependable traction. These tyres deliver stable steering response, predictable handling, and controlled braking across a wide range of road surfaces and typical driving conditions.
Built for year‑round performance (excluding severe snow and heavy ice), the E70 Decibel performs confidently in warm, wet, and moderately cool conditions.
Advanced Tread Compound
The tyre’s compound enhances grip and braking performance in wet conditions while maintaining strong dry performance and handling precision. Wide grooves channel water away from the contact patch to help reduce the risk of aquaplaning, and the tread construction supports even wear for extended mileage and consistent performance over time.
Reinforced Construction
Yokohama E70 Decibel 215/55 R17 features sturdy radial construction with steel belt reinforcement and durable internal layers to strengthen structural integrity, improve high‑speed stability, and ensure long‑lasting durability. Its internal design also helps dampen vibration and reduce noise, contributing to a smoother and more comfortable ride.
