Hankook Ventus Evo vs Yokohama Advan Sport V107
The pattern is clear: Yokohama excels in dry braking and is fractionally quicker on dry laps in some tests, but Hankook dominates in the wet-braking, handling, and aquaplaning-and adds stronger efficiency, wear, and refinement. For daily driving and changeable weather, those differences are likely to matter more than tenths in dry handling.
Test Results
Independent comparison tire tests are the best source of data to get tire information from, and the good news is there have been five tests which compare both tires directly!

While it might look like the Hankook Ventus Evo is better than the Yokohama Advan Sport V107 purely based on the higher number of test wins, tires are very complicated objects which means where one tire is better than the other can be more important in real world use.
Let's look at how the two tires compare across multiple tire test categories.
Key Strengths

- Strong aquaplaning resistance (both straight and curved)
- Lower rolling resistance and better wear for lower running costs
- Quieter, more comfortable ride with stronger overall value
- Class-leading dry braking in multiple tests
- Stable, grippy dry handling with quick lap times
- Low cabin noise on smooth surfaces
- Competitive pricing in some markets

Yokohama Advan Sport V107 Driver Reviews
Drivers report the Yokohama Advan Sport V107 delivers strong dry grip, sharp handling, and confident wet performance when warm, with several high-scoring reviews praising its sporty feel and feedback (including on EVs). However, many note high road noise on coarse surfaces and notably fast tread wear, making it less ideal for daily comfort or longevity-focused use.

Conclusion
The Advan Sport V107 counters with excellent dry braking-regularly topping or near the top of the group-and tidy dry dynamics. However, its weaker wet grip and the highest rolling resistance in key tests limit its appeal for everyday use, especially in rainy climates. Choose Yokohama if you prioritize sharp dry stopping and sportier dry response; choose Hankook if you want confident all-weather summer performance, better economy, and long-term value.
Key Differences
- Wet braking: Hankook repeatedly stops 10-14% shorter (e.g., 27.4 m vs 31.8 m; 42.7 m vs 49.6 m)
- Wet handling: Hankook quicker and more composed; Yokohama shows limited traction/stability in tests
- Aquaplaning: Hankook leads straight-line; curved is mixed but generally favors Hankook
- Dry braking: Yokohama consistently shorter by small margins (~0.6%)
- Efficiency: Hankook has significantly lower rolling resistance (e.g., 8.68 vs 10.62 kg/t)
- Durability and comfort: Hankook wears longer and rides quieter/more comfortably

Footnote
This page has been developed using tire industry testing best practices. This means we are only comparing tests which have had both tires in the same test.
Why is this important? Tire testing is heavily affected by things like surface grip levels and surface temperature, which means you can only compare values from the same day. During a tire test external condition changes are calculated into the overall results, but it is not possible to calculate this between tire tests performed on different days or at different locations.
As a result you will see other tests on Tire Reviews which feature both the %s and %s, but as they weren't conducted on the same day, the results are not comparable.
Lots of other websites do this sort of tire comparison, Tire Reviews doesn't.
