The ADVAN Sport is Yokohama's Max Performance Summer tire developed for the drivers of sophisticated sports cars, sports coupes and high performance sedans. The ADVAN Sport is designed to combine a high degree of comfort, high-speed durability, and a high level of traction in dry and wet conditions. Like all summer tires, the ADVAN Sport is not intended to be driven in near-freezing temperatures, through snow or on ice.
The ADVAN Sport features a silica blend tread compound developed to provide grip that's less affected by ambient temperatures. The compound is molded into an asymmetric tread pattern featuring five main ribs including a massive, outboard shoulder zone to blend handling with ride and noise comfort. Four wide, circumferential grooves help water flow through the footprint to resist hydroplaning.
The tire's internal structure features two wide steel belts reinforced by spirally wound nylon cap plies to provide strength and uniform ride quality, while the sidewalls are tuned to resist lateral deflection and provide predictable handling.
El neumático ADVAN Sport de Yokohama pertenece al segmento de Máximo Rendimiento Para Verano y fue desarrollado para los conductores de autos deportivos sofisticados, cupé deportivo y sedán de alto rendimiento. El diseño del ADVAN Sport combina niveles altos de confort, durabilidad y tracción sobre superficies secas y mojadas. Como todo neumático de verano, el ADVAN Sport, no fue diseñado para ser utilizado en temperaturas cercanas al nivel de congelación o superficies con hielo o nieve.
El ADVAN Sport posee un compuesto de caucho de sílice mezclado, que fue desarrollado para proporcionar un agarre que sea menos afectado por la temperatura ambiental. El compuesto de caucho es moldeado en un diseño asimétrico con cinco segmentos; el del hombro exterior, combina maniobrabilidad con confort y niveles bajos de ruido. Cuatro canales anchos circunferenciales se encargan de evacuar el agua, y así, resistir el deslizamiento en agua (hydroplaning) y aumentar la tracción en suelo mojado.
La estructura interna cuenta con dos correas anchas reforzadas con capas de nailon envuelto en espiral, proveen fortaleza al neumático y calidad al andar. Los flancos están diseñados para resistir la deflexión lateral producida al hacer contacto con la carretera y proveer una maniobrabilidad predecible.

Testing Dunlop's Latest Max Performance Summer Tire(03:37)
Max Performance Summer tires blend the latest technologies into a package that can maximize acceleration, braking and cornering power while remaining civilized enough for the daily commute or a night on the town.
The Sport Maxx TT is the newest from Dunlop in this category. It combines a motorsports-inspired tread compound with Touch Technology for enhanced tire-to-driver communication and Kevlar-reinforced sidewalls for handling. Has it maximized Max Performance? We found out when we compared it to three popular tires.
Customers praise the Yokohama ADVAN Sport for outstanding dry traction (frequent 9-10 scores) and confident wet performance, with strong hydroplaning resistance in most conditions. Comfort receives positive marks for ride quality, though noise levels show some variability. Most report solid treadwear for a summer tire, though some note faster wear than expected. High scores in steering responsiveness and cornering stability reinforce its max-performance summer focus, with drivers highlighting precise handling on dry roads. While a few mention reduced wet grip in heavy rain, feedback aligns well with its intended use for warm-weather performance driving.

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.

Great tires with good traction, however the life expectancy is very low 15-20k. Love the tires and will purchase again if the price is right. I'm driving a 2017 Nissan 370z, once I get the after-market exhaust on this car I may have less miles on my tires.

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...
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.

...Dry traction on these tires are excellent. Cornering is very stable with lots of feedback...
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.

...Tread-wear is crazy, I mean 60000k and I've had some parking lot fun and dump the clutch stuff and looks like 3/4 tread still left, amazingly! This tire won't burnout like a lesser tire...
These are on my 650 hp toy with breaks and suspension. The dry traction and handling is indescribably good ! I've had these up to 165mph or about 265kph and felt smooth and confident. I've had it in the rain a few times and for what it is it's a good tire. I don't care what tire I put on there it will be useless in the rain. I won't have it in the snow so... Tread-wear is crazy, I mean 60000k and I've had some parking lot fun and dump the clutch stuff and looks like 3/4 tread still left, amazingly! This tire won't burnout like a lesser tire. It snaps your neck and hooks hard. In a corner, the passenger is against the door. Laff. With the 6 piston breaks the breaking wants to pop your eyes out. 295's in front 315's in back. 30/18 inch.
