Worst ResultPerformance Analysis
Across 8 summer tyre tests, the Yokohama Advan Sport V107 shows a clear pattern of strong outright grip-especially in the dry-regularly achieving top-tier braking and competitive dry handling results. It can look like a genuine UHP performer in objective grip metrics (often top 1-4), and even when overall rankings vary, the tyre repeatedly demonstrates strong stopping power and capable dry dynamics.
However, its overall standings are repeatedly dragged down by efficiency and ownership factors (rolling resistance, wear, value) and by inconsistent wet performance depending on the test-ranging from near-front wet braking in some AutoBild results to near-bottom wet braking/wet circle in 2025. Straight-line aquaplaning is also a recurring weakness. The net picture is a tyre with strong sporty grip credentials but notable compromises in economy, longevity and wet-security margins in certain conditions.
