Giti GitiSportS2 vs Yokohama Advan Sport V107

This head-to-head sets the budget-friendly Giti GitiSportS2 against the more established Yokohama Advan Sport V107 in the ultra-high-performance summer segment, both tested repeatedly in 225/40 R18 and 225/45 R18 sizes. Across five shared tests, Yokohama consistently excels in grip-driven metrics-especially dry and short-wet braking-while Giti counters with superior aquaplaning resistance, lower rolling resistance, and quieter road manners.

The picture is nuanced: ADAC ranks the V107 much higher overall (6/18 vs. 15/18) on driving safety, yet Auto Bild's performance test shows the Giti ahead overall (17/21 vs. 19/21) thanks to strong wet aquaplaning reserves, comfort, noise, and efficiency. Mileage and price-pressure also shape value: Yokohama tends to last a bit longer but often carries higher rolling resistance and a higher purchase price.

Test Results

Independent comparison tyre tests are the best source of data to get tyre information from, and the good news is there have been five tests which compare both tyres directly!

While it might look like the Yokohama Advan Sport V107 is better than the Giti GitiSportS2 purely based on the higher number of test wins, tyres are very complicated objects which means where one tyre is better than the other can be more important in real world use.

Let's look at how the two tyres compare across multiple tyre test categories.

Key Strengths

  • Excellent straight and curved aquaplaning resistance (+8-17% advantages in ADAC)
  • Low rolling resistance and better fuel consumption (e.g., 5.5 vs 5.7 l/100km)
  • Lower noise and higher comfort scores in multiple tests
  • Competitive pricing/value in several sizes
  • Class-leading dry braking across all shared tests (e.g., 33.8 m vs 35.4 m)
  • Stronger dry handling and clearer steering feedback
  • Generally shorter wet braking distances in most tests
  • Slightly better projected mileage and abrasion performance

Dry Braking

Looking at data from five tyre tests, the Yokohama Advan Sport V107 was better during five dry braking tests. On average the Yokohama Advan Sport V107 stopped the vehicle in 6.82% less distance than the Giti GitiSportS2.

Real World Driver Reviews

Giti GitiSportS2 Driver Reviews

Most drivers rate the Giti GitiSportS2 highly for its quiet ride, comfort, strong dry and confident wet grip, and excellent value, often comparing it favorably to premium brands. A minority report issues at higher speeds or over time, including increased noise and instability, but these are outweighed by the many high-scoring reviews. Overall, the GitiSportS2 delivers premium-like performance at a budget price.

Yokohama Advan Sport V107 Driver Reviews

Drivers report the Yokohama Advan Sport V107 delivers strong dry grip, sharp handling, and confident wet performance when warm, with several high-scoring reviews praising its sporty feel and feedback (including on EVs). However, many note high road noise on coarse surfaces and notably fast tread wear, making it less ideal for daily comfort or longevity-focused use.

Best Review for the Giti GitiSportS2
Given 89% 235/40 R19 on mostly motorways for 10,000 spirited miles
Replaced the original Primacy 4 VOL with this set of new Gitis. So far very happy with the choice. Very comfortable and quite tyres, no noticeable difference with the Michelin. Dry handling gives confidence and even in heavy rain the tyre seems to well. The only negative point would be that the rim protector seems quite small and don't think it would do a good job. All things considered, and especially the low price point, these are a great choice and value for money! Recommended!

Own this MX5 mk4 from new. Serviced every year. Mileage at first MOT 12500. Tread 60%, tyre wall inside all 4 tyres cracking. Passed MOT but told safe to drive but keep a check on tyres. Car is used every day short trips around town. Also a few touring trips. Never had all 4 tyres have cracking on side wall before in any car.

Conclusion

If you prioritize outright grip and stopping distances, the Yokohama Advan Sport V107 is the safer bet: it wins all shared dry braking matchups and most wet braking contests, with sharper dry handling and clearer steering feedback. Its slight mileage edge further supports long-term durability. The trade-off is higher rolling resistance, more noise, and only adequate aquaplaning reserves versus peers.

The Giti GitiSportS2 suits drivers who see frequent rain or standing water, commute long distances, or value efficiency and comfort. It repeatedly tops straight and curved aquaplaning, runs quieter, and posts notably lower rolling resistance-often translating to lower fuel use. Its weaknesses are longer dry (and sometimes wet) braking distances and less precise handling. In short: choose Yokohama for maximum grip and confidence at speed; choose Giti for wet-security in deep water, comfort, and running-cost control.
Key Differences
  • Dry braking: Yokohama consistently shorter (up to ~12% advantage in ADAC).
  • Wet braking: Yokohama usually ahead, though Giti occasionally wins by small margins.
  • Aquaplaning: Giti clearly superior in straight and curved tests (+9-17% in ADAC).
  • Efficiency: Giti has significantly lower rolling resistance and lower fuel use.
  • Comfort/Noise: Giti quieter and often better subjectively.
  • Durability/Value: Yokohama slightly longer wear; Giti often cheaper but with lower mileage.

Footnote

This page has been developed using tyre industry testing best practices. This means we are only comparing tests which have had both tyres in the same test.

Why is this important? Tyre testing is heavily affected by things like surface grip levels and surface temperature, which means you can only compare values from the same day. During a tyre test external condition changes are calculated into the overall results, but it is not possible to calculate this between tyre tests performed on different days or at different locations.

As a result you will see other tests on Tyre Reviews which feature both the %s and %s, but as they weren't conducted on the same day, the results are not comparable.

Lots of other websites do this sort of tyre comparison, Tyre Reviews doesn't.
