The AVID TRZ is Yokohama's Standard Touring All-Season tyre developed for the drivers of coupes, sedans and minivans. The AVID TRZ is designed to provide comfort, longevity and driving satisfaction across a wide range of road conditions, including in light snow.
The AVID TRZ features a silica-enhanced all-season tread compound that remains more pliable at lower temperatures to increase cold weather traction. The compound is molded into an asymmetric tread design featuring Three Ride Zones (TRZ). The outside zone features large blocks and continuous ribs to focus dry road cornering grip, while the center zone features circumferential grooves to concentrate on water evacuation and the inner zone features lateral grooves and sipes to emphasize wintertime traction. The tire's internal structure includes twin steel belts reinforced by spirally wrapped nylon, along with a carcass that sandwiches high-density sidewall filler between polyester cord plies to blend comfortable ride qualities with predictable handling.
Features
- Two continuous circumferential ribs ensure maximum rubber contact with the road for enhanced grip.
- Cross supporting tread blocks work together as one continuous block when cornering to maintain superior traction as the vehicle’s weight is transferred to the outside of the tire.
- Four deep circumferential grooves help expel water quickly, reducing hydroplaning.
- Grooves and sipes work simultaneously to sweep water away from the tread surface.
- Adaptive sipes help maintain exceptional wet road traction, even as the tire wears
- Random pitch variation...

- Random pitch variation cancels out unwanted frequency noise.
- Asymmetrical pitch variation reduces amplification of pattern noise by having different patterns inside and outside.
