The ADVAN A048 is Yokohama’s Streetable Track & Competition racing tire developed for drivers who participate in autocross competition, high-performance driving schools, lapping days and circuit-type club racing, as well as are Original Equipment (O.E.) on the Lotus Elise and Exige. The ADVAN A048 is designed to take Yokohama's advanced racing technology to a new level in DOT-approved tire performance by delivering precise control, sure-footed braking and predictable grip.
ADVAN A048 radials meet DOT requirements, however they are not recommended for driving in wet conditions where standing water is present and there is the risk of hydroplaning; drivers should drive cautiously at reduced speeds if they encounter these conditions.
Important Care And Usage Instructions: The ADVAN A048 was developed using high performance compounds which become brittle at low temperatures, and therefore should not be used in certain conditions. ADVAN A048 tires thus must be stored or used only at temperatures at or above 14°F (-10°C) to maintain performance characteristics and to avoid any damage to the tire or injury to persons or property.
The ADVAN A048 molds race-ready tread compound(s) (offering Medium or Medium-Hard choices in many sizes) that can be used to match the tire's capabilities to vehicle weight and performance, as well as track conditions and ambient temperatures. It features a “single block” tread design that increases tread stiffness and features a wide center area that stays in continuous contact with the track to enhance cornering stability, on-center feel and steering response. The tire's internal structure includes twin steel belts reinforced with spirally wrapped nylon cap plies and belt edge strips. The belt package is placed on top of a rounded casing design that allows the tire to predictably handle transitions from straight-line travel to high g-force cornering and back.
ADVAN A048 tires are molded with 6/32" of tread depth in their grooves and are left unshaved for use on damp tracks. We suggest shaving ADVAN A048 tires to approximately 4/32" of tread depth to begin competitive road racing/track use in dry conditions. The ADVAN A048's directional tread design and symmetric internal construction allows remounting partially worn tires inside-out on their wheels to help prolong their life.
El neumático ADVAN A048 de Yokohama pertenece al segmento: De Carretera Para Pista y Competencia, y fue desarrollado para pilotos que participan en competencias de autocross, escuelas de manejo de alto rendimiento, circuitos y clubes de carrera , además es el neumático original (O.E., por sus siglas en inglés) del Lotus Elise y Exige. El ADVAN A048 utiliza la tecnología avanzada de carreras de Yokohama, para colocarlo en otro nivel en el grupo de neumáticos DOT de gran rendimiento, al proporcionar, un control más preciso, frenado más seguro y tracción predecible.
Los radiales ADVAN A048 cumplen con los requisitos DOT, sin embargo, no han sido diseñados para utilizarlos en carreteras mojadas donde existan charcos de agua, con el riesgo de resbalar (hydroplannig); si estas condiciones están presentes, el conductor debe manejar con cautela y reducir la velocidad.
Instrucciones de uso y cuidado: El ADVAN A048 fue desarrollado utilizando un compuesto de caucho de alto rendimiento, que a temperaturas bajas se debilita y por ende no debe ser utilizado en algunas condiciones. Por esta razón, los ADVAN A048 deben ser guardados o utilizados en temperaturas de 14ºF (-10ºC) o más, para mantener las características de rendimiento y evitar cualquier daño al neumático o daño a personas o bienes.
Los ADVAN A048 utilizan compuestos de caucho (Mediano o Mediano-Duro en diferentes tamaños) que pueden ajustarse al peso y rendimiento del vehículo, al igual que a las condiciones de la pista y la temperatura ambiental. Estos compuestos son moldeados en una banda de rodamiento de un “solo bloque”, que la endurece. Dentro de sus características se observa un área central ancha que permanece en contacto permanente con la pista y así, mejorar la estabilidad al tomar curvas, sensación de centrado y respuesta al girar el volante.
La estructura interna del neumático utiliza correas gemelas de acero reforzadas con capas de nailon envuelto en espiral y correas de refuerzos en los hombros. El conjunto de correas se encuentra ubicado arriba de una carcasa redonda que permite al neumático, predecir la transición de andar en línea recta, a fuerzas g altas, y tomar curvas y regresar a línea recta.
El ADVAN A048 posee una banda de rodamiento con profundidad de 6/32 partes de una pulgada y no se afeitan al utilizarlas en pistas húmedas. Recomendamos afeitar los neumáticos ADVAN A048 a una profundidad de 4/32 partes de una pulgada aproximadamente para competencias sobre superficies secas. La banda de rodamiento direccional y la construcción interna simétrica permite montar neumáticos parcialmente gastados invertidos en los rines (la parte interna afuera y viceversa), para prolongar la vida útil del neumático.

*Tire Rack's Tire Warranty Rating is an overall rating given to tire warranties after subjectively evaluating their value for the consumer. Warranties are rated on a scale of 0-5 with 5 being the highest. This rating combines all of the aspects of each tire's warranty where applicable, including: mileage/treadlife, materials and workmanship, balance and uniformity, replacement tire cost, warranty duration and any special manufacturer's warranties that apply. See official manufacturer's warranty brochure for specific details.
NOTE: New vehicle Original Equipment tire warranties often differ from those covering replacement tires. Consult your vehicle documents to confirm Original Equipment tire warranty coverage.
The Original Equipment applications for this tire are not available online at this time. Please call 888-541-1777 to speak with one of our sales specialists. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause.
