Engineered as a winter option for everyday driving, the Yokohama Iceguard IG53 22545R17 91H measures 225 mm across with a 45% aspect ratio, fitting 17-inch wheels.
It carries a load index of 91, supporting up to 615 kg (1356 lbs) per tire, and a speed rating of H, rated for sustained speeds up to 210 km/h (130 mph). This places it in the C1 category — an entry-level, budget-friendly class.
It does not include rim protection, so extra care around curbs is recommended to avoid wheel damage. Run-flat technology isn’t part of this model, so standard puncture precautions apply. It uses standard (non-reinforced) construction, which is sufficient for typical passenger car loads.
It performs on muddy and snow-covered roads and carries winter-suitability testing.
Its EU label ratings come in at D for fuel efficiency, E for wet grip, and B for rolling noise (72 dB), placing it in the mid-range for road noise.
As useful as the EU label is, it doesn’t cover every factor — things like dry-weather grip, aquaplaning resistance, and tread wear fall outside the official scoring.
