Backed by a 65,000-mile limited tread life warranty, it strikes a practical balance between wet-weather capability, light winter competence, and a smooth, quiet highway experience.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe AVID Touring-S uses a symmetrical tread pattern with four wide circumferential grooves — referred to as Tapered Rain Channels — that channel water away from the contact patch to reduce hydroplaning risk on wet roads. Lateral grooves and dense siping add grip in light wintry conditions, while the specially shaped shoulder blocks are engineered to minimize road noise for a quieter cabin experience.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWe stock the Yokohama AVID Touring-S in 28 sizes for 15\"–17\" wheels — every size below lists its exact specs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e65,000-mile limited tread life warranty for long-term value\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSymmetrical tread pattern delivers consistent wet and dry performance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFour wide circumferential grooves channel water to resist hydroplaning\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDense siping supports traction in light snow and wintry conditions\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eShoulder block design engineered to reduce highway road noise\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFits 15\", 16\", and 17\" rim sizes across 28 available sizes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003ePerformance Profile\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeason Coverage:\u003c\/strong\u003e All-Season Touring\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProjected Longevity:\u003c\/strong\u003e UTQG treadwear 620 · 65,000-mile manufacturer tread-life warranty\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTraction Grade:\u003c\/strong\u003e A (UTQG wet traction)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTemperature Grade:\u003c\/strong\u003e B (UTQG heat resistance)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eAbout Yokohama Tires\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYokohama was established in 1917 and is headquartered in Tokyo, Japan. Over more than a century, the company has grown into a globally recognized tire manufacturer with a strong presence in the United States. Yokohama has also built a notable motorsport legacy, with its Advan tire line playing a central role in competitive racing success across various sports car championships.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn the U.S. market, Yokohama produces tires for passenger cars, light trucks, SUVs, CUVs, ATVs, UTVs, commercial vehicles, and electric vehicles. The Geolandar lineup is engineered for both off-road terrain and on-road handling, while the Avid series targets everyday driving needs. For harsh winter conditions, the iceGUARD line is built to perform in extreme cold and snow, rounding out a broad portfolio suited to nearly any driving environment or season.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs the AVID Touring-S a directional tire?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eNo, it uses a symmetrical tread pattern rather than a directional one. This design provides reliable traction in both wet and dry conditions and also allows for more flexible tire rotation patterns, which can help extend tread life.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow does the AVID Touring-S handle rain and wet roads?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe tire's four wide circumferential grooves, lateral grooves, and siping work together to evacuate water from under the tread and reduce the risk of hydroplaning. Most drivers find it performs well in typical rainy conditions, though as with any all-season tire, extremely heavy downpours will test its limits.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCan I use the AVID Touring-S during winter?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt handles light winter weather — occasional snow, slush, and cold pavement — reasonably well thanks to its all-season compound and dense siping. However, it is not Three-Peak Mountain Snowflake certified, meaning it has not been tested for severe-snow service. Drivers in regions with harsh winters or frequent heavy snowfall should consider a dedicated winter tire.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs the AVID Touring-S a good option for highway commuting?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes. The computer-tuned tread pattern and shaped shoulder blocks are specifically designed to keep road noise low, making long highway stretches more comfortable. Combined with the 65,000-mile tread life warranty, it's a practical choice for high-mileage commuters.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat rim sizes does the AVID Touring-S come in?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe AVID Touring-S is currently offered in 15\", 16\", and 17\" rim diameters across 28 sizes. It is not available in larger rim sizes, so drivers with 18\" or bigger wheels will need to look at a different model.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDo I get the full manufacturer warranty buying from TFS Wheels?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes.
