Drawn from 11 tests. Updated July 7, 2026.
Across 11 summer tests, the Yokohama Advan Sport V107 shows a clear performance identity: it is repeatedly near the top for dry grip metrics (especially dry braking and, in some tests, outright dry handling pace), but it is regularly dragged down in overall rankings by efficiency and running-cost related areas (rolling resistance, wear/abrasion, and value). This creates a pattern where the tire can look excellent in headline dry grip tables yet still finishes mid-pack to low in full-score tests that weight economy and longevity.
Wet performance is mixed rather than uniformly poor: it can be competitive in some wet braking results (e.g., top-4 in large-field braking tests), but also posts several notably weak wet-braking outcomes (including last place in one major AutoBild test). Comfort/noise tends to be lower-mid pack, not a consistent advantage. Overall, the V107 suits drivers prioritizing dry performance/steering feel over efficiency and long-life, with wet braking variability and high rolling resistance being the main caveats.

Every tester write-up on the Yokohama Advan Sport V107 (8 tests) and 24 owner reviews were tagged for the aspects they judge. Where both have spoken, this is how they line up.
Strong = top two of the field in that measurement. Weak = bottom two.
The Yokohama Advan Sport V107 finished last, though not by a wide margin. It has real dry-handling ability, but the highest rolling resistance of the field and only average wet pace leave it at the bottom of a close group.
The Yokohama Advan Sport V107 finishes thirteenth with strong dry handling qualities and the highest straight aquaplaning resistance in the test. However, it carries the highest rolling resistance figure of all finalists, which directly increases fuel or energy consumption. It also scores weaker in wet handling relative to the top tier, and the overall cost rating is pulled down by higher running costs.
The Yokohama Advan Sport V107 is a strong new contender that claimed numerous podium spots across the tests, proving particularly impressive in the wet. Around the wet lap it was very handy, with crisp turn-in allowing early throttle application. It showed impressive stability into sweeps and then, off the throttle for the downhill tight right, it rotated progressively and proportionately, allowing the perfect line to be found. It was great on the brakes too; all that was missing was a bit more outright grip. In the dry, the Yokohama was neat and biddable, feeling light, clean and keen, giving the BMW a nimble, precise demeanour. It just needed to be hustled a little to make the late apex of the first corner. On the road route it suppressed noise well and softened impacts with aplomb, though the steering was a little sticky around center at B-road speeds.
The new Yokohama Advan Sport V107 delivers a competitive showing among major European rivals, excelling more in dry conditions than wet. It topped dry braking with a class-leading 106ft stop from 60mph and ranked joint-fourth in dry handling, feeling grippy and tidy if slightly demanding to drive at the limit. Wet performance was more mixed, with fifth in straight-line braking, equal-seventh in handling due to limited traction and stability, and mid-pack aquaplaning results. It offered low cabin noise but was louder over sharp bumps, and its high rolling resistance made it the least fuel-efficient tire tested. Overall, its performance was still within 2% of the best in the group.
The Yokohama Advan Sport V107 showed good driving dynamics and short braking distances on dry surfaces, with particularly good dry braking performance at 111 feet from 62 mph. It struggled with grip in wet conditions, showing weaker performance in wet handling tests and aquaplaning resistance than many competitors. Its limited mileage of 22,301 miles and high rolling resistance of 10.62 kg/t (the highest in the test) further impacted its overall performance. Despite a decent price of €356, its mixed results earned it a "satisfactory" rating overall.
The Yokohama Advan Sport V107 earns a "good" overall rating, achieving a "good" score for driving safety due to its "very good" performance on dry roads and "good" performance on wet roads. It provides clear feedback, stable handling, and excellent braking on dry surfaces. It performs well in wet conditions, with good braking and handling, but its aquaplaning resistance is only adequate. However, its environmental performance is only satisfactory due to low projected mileage, average abrasion and high weight.
The Advan Sport V107 provided a uniquely sporty and fun driving experience, with quick steering and greater feedback at the limit. However, they struggled with stopping in wet conditions and required more time to warm up, which makes it less ideal than some of the other tires in this test for use on the road. Furthermore, they were significantly rougher over potholes, indicating potential comfort issues for everyday driving. A charming tire and the best road tire of the group if you plan on doing track days
