Shopping Yokohama in Columbus? Columbus Tire Shop stocks and orders across the Yokohama range for drivers in Columbus, OH. The badge on the sidewall matters less than which line inside it suits how you actually drive, and what that line costs once it is on the car — so tell us the vehicle and the miles you put on it, and we will tell you which Yokohama is worth your money and which one is not.

What Yokohama costs installed in Columbus
A Yokohama price that is only the tire is not a price. Our quote is the out-the-door total: the tires, mounting, balancing, new valve stems or TPMS service kits, disposal of the old set, and tax. And before anything is mounted we read you the DOT code off the sidewall — the last four digits are the week and year that tire was built, because new is not a date.
Yokohama has roots in motorsport and suits drivers who care how the car turns in. AVID Ascend GT is the touring all-season for sedans and crossovers, ADVAN Sport A/S+ is the performance all-season, and iceGUARD iG53 is the dedicated winter tire for Columbus snow.
Yokohama is Japanese, with a performance heritage built on motorsport. That history shows in the brand's appeal: it is for the driver who notices steering response and would rather feel the car turn in crisply than float.
If your priority is the longest possible tread life at a rock-bottom price, or a rugged mud tire, other brands may serve you better. Six lines are shown below, split between car and crossover tires, truck-leaning tires, and a winter option.
Does a motorsport-rooted brand make sense on a daily driver?
It can. ADVAN Sport A/S+ is the performance all-season, which is the line for a driver who wants sharper handling but still needs a tire that works across the seasons. AVID Ascend GT is the touring all-season for sedans and crossovers, the sensible pick when comfort and everyday manners matter more than lap-time feel.
Ask yourself honestly how you drive. If you take on-ramps with some enthusiasm, ADVAN Sport A/S+ makes sense. If your car is mostly school runs and commuting, the touring line is the better fit.
Which Yokohama suits a crossover, SUV or truck, and what about snow?
Geolandar CV G058 is the touring all-season for crossovers and SUVs. Geolandar A/T G015 is an all-terrain for SUVs and pickups, and Geolandar X-AT is an aggressive hybrid all-terrain for trucks. The further down that list you go, the more the tread favors dirt over quiet highway miles.
Winter in Columbus means snow, and an all-season is a compromise there. iceGUARD iG53 is a dedicated winter tire. It is meant to be mounted for the cold months and swapped back afterward, so think about where the other set will be stored before you commit.
What paperwork should I look at before I pay?
Your car's door placard lists the correct size, load index and speed rating. The tires on the car now might not match it, so don't copy from them. On the sidewall, the four-digit DOT date reads as week first, then year. Ask to see it before the tire is mounted, so you know how long it sat before reaching you.
A manufacturer's mileage promise is a pro-rated credit measured against the tread that remains, not a refund. Expect carve-outs for uneven wear from bad alignment, running low on air, and damage from curbs or potholes. Each line carries its own terms, so get the terms for the specific tire in your quote.
Which Yokohama is best for a family crossover?
Geolandar CV G058 is the touring all-season for crossovers and SUVs, so start there. If your crossover sees gravel or trails, Geolandar A/T G015 is the all-terrain alternative.
Is ADVAN Sport A/S+ a summer tire?
No. It is listed as a performance all-season, so it is meant to work across seasons. For heavy snow, a dedicated winter tire such as iCEGUARD iG53 is still the stronger tool.
