Yokohama Tire Corp. has earned a supplier's award from Subaru of Indiana Automotive (SIA) for the third year in a row.

With three straight years of recognition, Yokohama landed in the Superior Excellent Performance category. Yokohama earned the award for its supply of the Avid S34P (P225/40R18 88V) tires on the Impreza and Avid GT S35 on the Legacy (P225/55R17 97V and 225/50R18 95V), and on the Outback (225/65R17 102H and 225/60R18 100H).

“Once again we are extremely honored to have Subaru recognize Yokohama as one of its top suppliers,” says Andrew Zeisser, Yokohama’s vice president of original equipment manufacturer sales. “It reinforces the long-term commitment we’ve shared with Subaru to provide world-class products and service.”

The Excellent Performance Award honors suppliers for safety, quality, cost and delivery.

Both the Avid S34P and Avid GT S35 were developed by applying the basic design and materials technology used in Yokohama’s BluEarth global tire brand. The Avid S34P is an all-season passenger car tire that offers higher fuel efficiency while also providing drivability and safety. The all-season Avid GT S35 is a fuel-efficient grand touring tire with superior wet traction, dependable winter traction and a quiet, smooth ride.
