Yokohama Blue Earth 21" Winters

I know it's early to start thinking about winter tires but I can't seem to find these tires in-stock anywhere in the 21" sizes. Does anyone have any leads as to where these tires can be found online for purchase at this time? TIA

You have left vague information. Are you looking for a square set of 21" tires or a staggered set?

Also, what is your location? The flag next to your icon is not the red/white/blue of the USA...I'm not familiar with it...so are you looking for these tires in a different country?

Here in the USA, The TireRack has the square set of 21" Yoko BluEarths V905...but they don't sell the BMW X5M's rear staggered 21" tire size.

Apologies for the vague post. I am in Alberta, Canada and looking for the staggered set 285/35/21 and 325/30/21...

I searched Tire rack and didn't see the Blue Earth offered so not sure. I did read somewhere they are made in batches and once sold out they gone until another batch is manufactured. That being said, probably have to wait until closer to winter.

For what it’s worth, I just bought a set in the UK. All manufactured in 2023 so there are some out there already.

Thanks for the update...but don't wait TOO close to winter...because you'll definitely be in a pickle. August/September/October before the leaves fall off the trees is the time to be getting your ducks lined up in a row to find dedicated winter tires.

If they are back-ordered now...stay on top because if/when they do ramp up production they won't last long and will usually be really hard to find by the time Thanksgiving (4th Thursday in Nov) comes around.

Also your 21" size is another factor that will make a dedicated winter hard to find for a brand like the Yoko BluEarths. Rare sizes go fast.

Good luck.

Strange thing is I don't see them anywhere online in Canada or the US at the typical places such as Tire Rack and 1010 tires and PMC in Canada in the 21" staggered sizes. Hope they are not going to discontinue...

I’m on the same boat, they are available on eBay and shipped from Italy…. I’m thinking alternative size like 275/40/21 front 315/35/21 rear, Nokian Hakkapeliitta R5 and looks like Pneusaquebec has them in stock.

Dang, I think I'm lucky I got mine last year! I got the 285/325 OEM 21' wheel fitment! Just put the winter wheels on last week!
