The ADVAN Sport A/S+ is Yokohama's Ultra High Performance All-Season tire developed for sports car, sporty coupe and luxury sedan drivers who want confident year-round capability and enhanced wet traction. Designed to provide a performance-focused driving experience plus enjoyable ride and noise comfort, the ADVAN Sport A/S+ delivers traction in dry, wet and wintry conditions, even light snow.
The updated, high performance compound of the ADVAN Sport A/S+ is molded into an asymmetric tread pattern focused on blending responsive handling with all-season performance. Extra-large outboard shoulder blocks enhance dry cornering while 2-IN-1 intermediate blocks increase handling response and lateral stability. The updated compound features increased silica content and utilizes a proprietary mixing process to improve wet traction compared to the tire's predecessor. Circumferential grooves help evacuate water from under the tread to enhance hydroplaning resistance. Streaming Z-Grooves and Wavy Sipes create biting edges for enhanced grip in slippery conditions, while inboard serpentine grooves increase snow-shearing force for winter traction.
The tire's internal structure includes twin steel belts reinforced by spirally wrapped nylon on top of a casing featuring an Optimized Sidewall Construction that extends the sidewall reinforcement higher up the sidewall to blend responsive handling and ride comfort.
El neumático ADVAN Sport A/S+ de Yokohama pertenece a la categoría: Ultra Alto Rendimiento Para Toda Estación. Fue desarrollado para conductores de autos deportivos, cupé deportivos y sedanes de lujo, que desean tracción confiable durante las cuatro estaciones del año y mejorar la tracción sobre superficies mojadas. Su diseño proporciona una experiencia de manejo enfocada al rendimiento, un andar agradable y niveles bajos de ruido. El ADVAN Sport A/S+ proporciona tracción sobre superficies secas, mojadas y en condiciones invernales incluyendo las superficies cubiertas con poca nieve.
El compuesto de caucho mejorado de alto rendimiento del ADVAN Sport A/S+ es moldeado en una banda de rodamiento con patrón asimétrico y se enfoca en combinar maniobrabilidad responsiva con rendimiento efectivo, durante las cuatro estaciones del año. Bloques extra grandes en el hombro exterior mejoran la tracción al tomar curvas, mientras que, bloques intermedios 2-1 mejoran la respuesta al girar el volante y la estabilidad lateral. El compuesto de caucho mejorado, comparado a su predecesor, posee mayor contenido de sílice y utiliza un proceso de mezcla patentado, para mejorar la tracción sobre superficies mojadas. Canales circunferenciales ayudan a evacuar el agua por debajo de la huella, para así, ofrecer mayor resistencia al deslizamiento sobre agua (hydroplaning). Ranuras tipo Z forman bordes adherentes largos que aumentan la tracción sobre nieve, mientras que, pequeñas ranuras tipo serpentinas en el interior, mejoran aún más la tracción de invierno.
La estructura interna incluye correas gemelas de acero reforzadas por nailon envuelto en espiral, por encima de una cubierta que posee una construcción optimizada del flanco (Optimized Sidewall Construction), la cual extiende el refuerzo más allá del flanco, para combinar una maniobrabilidad responsiva y un andar confortable.

Very smooth tire, excellent in dry and especially in wet, superb grip in almost any conditions...
Very smooth tire, excellent in dry and especially in wet, superb grip in almost any conditions. The tire noise, or the lack of I should say is impresive. And if its going to be good enough to be OE on Bnetley GT Coupe and Porsche 911 and S8, its good enough for amateurs like me. I like hard acceleration and I drive waaay over the speed limit on daily basis, not that I am condoning it....These tires have inpressed me so far. I recomend them.

...Dry traction on these tires are excellent...
I have the full JCW suspention and with the factory run flats the ride was very choppy especially in the city. I wanted a tire that could match the suspension but give an acceptable ride for daily commuting, with the ocassional track day thown in. The Advan Sport fits this criteria and the nimble feeling of the MINI has been retained. Dry traction on these tires are excellent. In wet conditions they instill confidence. Cornering is very stable with lots of feedback. Turn in could be a little more responsive, but that is the trade off for the outstanding ride comfort. These tires excell at highway speeds. They do not tramline and are quiet for a performance tire, even on rain grooved surfaces. I am hoping to get a least 17-18k miles out of a set of four. I drive about that many miles per year and a new set of tires and an alignment once a year is totally acceptable for the way drive. I will be taking the car to the track in October and will try to give an update on how the tires do there. So far, I am very pleased. Thanks to the Tire Rack associate who recommended these and with the $40 rebate, these tires should not be passed up by anyone with a MINI Cooper S or JCW.

Using these on a 350Z for track days, excellent tires on both dry and rainy days. These are a great step on the path to real racing compounds. I've had much better high temp performance on track than w/others like Pilot Sports...
Using these on a 350Z for track days, excellent tires on both dry and rainy days. These are a great step on the path to real racing compounds. I've had much better high temp performance on track with these than w/others like Pilot Sports. The Pilots overheated and started deforming the tread blocks, under same conditions the next day these held up perfectly, never overheated. For their price they are a great tire to use while building skills.

These tires are a huge improvement over the Dunlop Sport 01. There are not many to choose from for this size and I really lucked out when I bought these. They ride great and I love the way they look. It is like a different car now. Good bang for your buck.

...Quiet and relatively comfortable with parallel cornering and stability.
Very good tire. Had the Bridgestone 050A and Advan 046 before and this tire is much better. Quiet and relatively comfortable with parallel cornering and stability. High speed stability is also improved. Tire grips from the first minute and holds on despite hot weather and punishing ride !! Nice to see Yokohama bringing out such an advanced product. Highly recommended for those who use the car for DD with spirited driving. Tread wear is very good for now !

...I had three track days and daily comuting and the tire wear has been excellent. I have about 4/32 of remaining tread after 25k miles and should be able to squeeze another track day and a few thousand more miles...
This is quite possibly the best tire I have every driven. I ditched the Contis after only 10k miles and replaced with the ADVAN Sports and the car handles like a dream. This is a daily driver and I also take the car to the track for DE and this tire has handled everything I can throw at it. It took a little testing to find the right tire pressure but after I added 3 lbs to the rear and 2 to the front the tire transformed into near R compound like performance. I had three track days and daily comuting and the tire wear has been excellent. I have about 4/32 of remaining tread after 25k miles and should be able to squeeze another track day and a few thousand more miles. I will be replacing with the same tires. I can only compare this tire to CSC2 and Bridgestone RE050 Pole Position and the ADVAN is a much smoother quieter ride that gives much more confidence when pushed to its limits. As long as Yokohama keeps making this tire I will keep buying it.

...I'm bad at rotating on time, but treadwear has been great for a summer tire - especially with this much performance at this price...
In the last 10 years these are easily the best summer tires I've had for the car. They are quiet, even when pushed. Sidewalls are stiff to go with the solid predictable grip. I'm bad at rotating on time, but treadwear has been great for a summer tire - especially with this much performance at this price. Even a recent wet lapping day didn't phase them.
