Wins count every measurement the shared tests recorded for both tires; a tick marks the tire ahead on that line. Subjective driver scores count as wins but are never averaged, because each test uses its own scale.
Head to head in 7 tests, 2023 to 2026
Each row is one published test in which both tires ran on the same car, in the same size, on the same day. The line is the whole field, winner on the left.

Braking distances and lap times are better when lower; speeds, wear and grip figures when higher. A test's figures are its own: sizes, cars, surfaces and temperatures differ from one to the next, which is why the averages here are only ever of tests the two tires shared. "Scored" rows are subjective driver ratings: each test uses its own scale, so only the wins are counted.
Scores beyond the shared tests
On the Tire Reviews Score, which weighs every test and review we hold, the N Fera Sport SU2 scores 8.4 and the Advan Sport V107 8.8 out of 10.

Drivers describe the Nexen N Fera Sport SU2 as a strong value-focused performance tire with very good dry and wet grip, confident handling, and stability at speed for the money. However, a large share of users report short tread life (often with heavy/uneven shoulder wear) and many also mention poor refinement as the tire ages, including increased road noise and a harsher ride. Overall sentiment is mixed, with performance praised but longevity and comfort commonly limiting repeat purchases.
- Very good dry grip and handling
- Strong wet grip and confidence in rain
- Good value/price versus premium brands
- Stable and predictable at higher speeds
- Fast wear/short tread life (often uneven shoulder wear)
- High road noise and mediocre comfort/harsh ride
- Weaker performance in cold temperatures

All 18 N Fera Sport SU2 reviewsI've driven the tire's about 40 000km on my family diesel wagon.The final result is four summers and they're gone.The protector is about 4mm,the outer side of the tires is melted like slick tire,and pieces of rubber come off.After a little bump one of the tires got a puncture in the side board,which surprised me a little,but for the price everything is OK.The grip is very good in wet and dry,they perform good in dynamic driving...when they new :)

Owners most consistently praise the Yokohama Advan Sport V107 for strong dry performance, with around three in five highlighting excellent dry grip and many also noting sharp steering and confident dry handling. Wet grip is generally rated as decent, though opinions are more mixed, with a small but notable group (around one in seven) finding it weaker, particularly in colder conditions. The biggest drawback is longevity: around two in five owners complain of very fast wear. Noise is another frequent issue, with around one in three reporting higher road roar, especially on rougher surfaces.
- Outstanding dry grip and confidence under power
- Very capable dry handling with strong feedback
- Direct, responsive steering feel
- Stiff, sporty sidewalls that support hard driving
- Very short tread life and rapid wear
- Noticeable road noise/roar, especially on coarse surfaces
- Needs heat or a bedding-in period to feel at its best

Reading the results
Written from the test results and owner reviews above. It is analysis, not a measurement: where it and the tables disagree, the tables are right.
Seven shared tests and a four to three record in the Yokohama Advan Sport V107's favor, which undersells how differently these two tires go about their work.
The Yokohama is the dry road tire. It braked shorter in the dry in five of seven tests and won all three dry handling comparisons, and Auto Bild's judges scored it 8.7 points against 6.7 for subjective dry handling in 2026, a 29.9 percent gap.
The Nexen N Fera Sport SU2 is the wet weather and running cost tire. It stopped shorter in the wet in five of seven, by 11.7 percent in Auto Bild's 2026 test, 42.3m against 47.9m, and by 11.4 percent in the 52 tire braking shootout where it finished 3rd of 50 against the Yokohama's 18th. It was also quieter in all four noise tests, cheaper per 1000km in all four cost comparisons, and rolled with 20.4 percent less resistance in 2026.
Conclusion
The Nexen N Fera Sport SU2 is the one to buy for road use. Its wet braking advantage is the largest thing either tire owns: 42.3m against 47.9m in Auto Bild's 2026 test and 27.1m against 30.6m in the braking shootout, both around 11 percent, which is the difference between stopping in a lane and not. It also rolled with 20.4 percent less resistance, 8.04 against 10.1 kg/t, lasted longer in three of four wear tests and cost less per 1000km in all four, 12.13 against 14.03 in 2026. It was quieter in every noise test too, and 3rd of 50 in that shootout is the standout result of the seven.
The Yokohama Advan Sport V107 is the tire for a dry road and a keen driver. It stopped shorter in the dry in five of seven tests and took all three dry handling comparisons, with Auto Bild scoring its steering 8.7 against 6.7 subjectively in 2026. Auto Bild also singled it out that year for the highest straight aquaplaning resistance in the field, and it finished ahead in four of the seven shared tests overall.
That four to three record is the awkward part, because it sits alongside a wet braking gap of eleven percent going the other way. The explanation is that several of those wins came in tests weighted towards dry pace and handling feel. If your roads are dry and you enjoy steering response, the Yokohama has a case. For everyone else the Nexen brakes better in the wet, uses less fuel, lasts longer and costs less to run.

Where this data comes from
Finishing positions and measurements are transcribed from each published test. A test only counts here when both tires ran in it, so every figure was recorded on the same car, size and day as the one it is compared to.
About the TR Score
The Tire Reviews Score rates each tire out of 10 from every independent test result and vetted owner review we hold, so two tires can be compared even before a test has run them together.
Who does the testing
Every test published as a Tire Reviews test is run by Jonathan Benson, who has been testing tires independently since 2007.
