From owners

Pros, cons & observations

Themes extracted from owner reviews across retailers and review sites — not the opinion of TireWheelGuide.

Tire A BFGoodrich Advantage T/A

The BFGoodrich Advantage T/A receives a polarized reception, with the user highlighting significant concerns regarding the consistency and predictability of the tire compound. While it may offer improved grip levels compared to certain entry-level alternatives, the lack of reliability across varying temperature ranges makes it a difficult recommendation for performance-oriented driving.

Pros

  • Improved grip levels compared to baseline tires like the XM2
  • Adequate stiffness in cold weather conditions

Cons

  • Highly unpredictable compound performance
  • Poor heat resistance leading to a 'mushy' feel in hot weather
  • Lack of confidence-inspiring grip in cold and wet conditions

Observations

  • The XL (Extra Load) variant does not mitigate the fundamental issues with the tire's compound construction.
Tire B Yokohama ADVAN A11A

The Yokohama Advan A11A is generally regarded as a capable, performance-oriented tire that offers predictable handling and strong dry-weather grip. While users appreciate its longevity and rigid sidewall feedback, there are notable concerns regarding long-term structural integrity and wet-weather braking performance.

Pros

  • Confident dry-weather cornering and handling
  • Excellent braking performance in dry conditions
  • High durability and long tread life
  • Good road feedback and rigid sidewall construction

Cons

  • Concerns regarding structural integrity, specifically sidewall splitting over time
  • Mediocre performance and braking confidence on wet surfaces
  • Firm ride quality that may be uncomfortable for some drivers

Observations

  • The tire is noted for maintaining consistent performance characteristics over high mileage, with one user reporting successful use over 70,000 km.
  • The tire's rigid sidewalls are specifically praised for providing clear road feedback, which some drivers find beneficial for spirited rear-wheel-drive applications.

How do we compare tires?

Every category score blends two independent signals. 60% comes from professional tire tests (braking distances, lap times, noise measurements) normalized against the best tire in each test and weighted toward recent tests. 40% comes from thousands of owner reviews collected from retailers and review sites. When a tire has only one of the two, we use what exists and say so.

Community buzz from Reddit and forums is shown for context only — it never changes the score.
