I was worried. Just before Yokohama's new Geolandar M/T G003 SxS tires arrived, I legit had a bit of a panic attack. My BFGoodrich tires had been so good, so reliable, so amazingly flexible on my Can-Am Maverick X3 Max over the last two years, I was worried the larger, heavier, and chunkier Yokohamas were going to be a disaster.
It was also Yokohama's first foray into the space, and I tend to wait a generation or year within a new product cycle before adopting anything, as the manufacturer tends to have to work out some kinks before they're good for mass consumption. Plus, as I've stated emphatically in the past in these very pages, I'm an engineer's worst nightmare. I'm the edge-case scenario. The 138% of the 135% they engineer for.
I'm a wrecking ball with little to no mechanical sympathy.
