Tire B Yokohama ADVAN Sport V105

The Yokohama Advan Sport V105 is widely regarded as a high-performance summer tire that excels in dry handling, steering responsiveness, and wet-weather confidence. While many users praise its balanced nature and value compared to premium rivals, some report concerns regarding tread longevity and noise levels, particularly as the tires age.

Pros

  • Excellent dry road grip and cornering stability
  • Strong wet-weather performance and hydroplaning resistance
  • High level of steering feedback and turn-in precision
  • Competitive pricing compared to other flagship performance brands
  • Predictable handling characteristics at the limit

Cons

  • Faster-than-average tread wear, especially under spirited driving
  • Increased road noise reported by some users
  • Performance drop-off in freezing temperatures and snow
  • Occasional 'flat-spotting' or vibration after the vehicle has been stationary for extended periods

Observations

  • Owners of lightweight sports cars like the Mazda MX-5 report excellent handling balance and longevity, often citing the tire as an ideal OE-style replacement.
  • Drivers of high-torque, rear-wheel-drive sedans (e.g., BMW 5-series, Audi S4) note that while grip is impressive, rear tire wear is significantly accelerated compared to front tires.
  • Some users with larger luxury sedans noted that the tire's 'firm' construction can lead to a harsher ride over small road imperfections.

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.
