The Yokohama Ice Guard IG60A is a studless winter tyre designed for passenger cars, crossovers, and SUVs. This premium touring winter tyre features an asymmetric tread pattern with advanced technologies including Double Microgroove sipes for immediate ice performance, Quattro 3-D Dimple Sipes for steering stability, and Orange Oil S technology that maintains flexibility in cold temperatures. The tyre incorporates an absorptive compound with micro balloons that absorb water on icy surfaces, and increased silica dispersion for improved grip on wet and icy roads. Performance testing shows reasonable wet braking capabilities and general suitability for snow and ice driving conditions, though noise levels have been noted as higher compared to competitors. The IG60A is recommended for drivers prioritizing winter safety with emphasis on ice and snow traction for regular passenger vehicle use across harsh seasonal conditions.
