The Yokohama GT Special Classic Y350 is a meticulously crafted modern replica of Yokohama’s groundbreaking GT Special tyre, originally launched in 1967 with the catchphrase “”Taking the Lead in the Radial Era”” as Japan’s first radial tyre range. The original GT Special was instrumental in bringing Japan into the motorised age during the 1960s and 1970s, contributing to the motorisation of Japanese society and securing its position as a Yokohama heritage icon.

Developed using today’s advanced manufacturing technologies, the tyre provides improved wet-weather capability, better durability and enhanced safety compared to original 1960s rubber whilst preserving the visual authenticity that classic car owners demand. Available in 14-inch and 15-inch sizes specifically chosen to fit popular historic Japanese and European cars from the 1960s and 1970s. Suited to classic car collectors, vintage car enthusiasts and historic vehicle owners who demand period-correct appearance and authentic driving feel whilst requiring the safety, reliability and longevity of modern tyre technology for show cars, weekend drives and classic car events
