Having used Yokohama's top of the range AD08s (great for trackdays - useless in the wet or on bumpy roads), I wanted something a little more flexible and suited to general road use. The price of the 105s was good and the dry grip is excellent while the wet grip is decent. However, they don't have precise steering response of the AD08s. I can forgive that - after all, this is a tyre designed to be more suited to the road. However, they fall down in other areas too, being very noisy, with a poor ride quality especially as they wear down. And boy - do they wear quickly - faster than my AD08s! On the basis of my experience, I would hesitate to recommend these tyres - just too many compromises for a road tyre Read more Collapse

I bought these tires with a skeptical attitude because this is my first purchase of the tyres of this company. However, the Yokohama Advan Sport V105 pleasantly surprised me. Excellent grip on dry and wet roads. You can quickly enter a turn without fear of falling. Moreover, these are fairly quiet and comfortable. I recommendthose tyres to all, I’m pretty sure that no one will complain. I will only add that I based my opinion on my feelings on driving about 1500 miles. I did not notice any signs of wear. I predict that after driving 30 or 40 thousands miles my opinion will not change. Read more Collapse

The best tires in this class. Recommended for dry and wet surface. The car runs prefectly, it’s difficult to move it off balance, even at higher speed (on the wet road as well). I recommend the Yokohama Advan Sport V105 as well as the other Yokohama tyres. Underappreciated, but really great product (tires mounted for fast cars). These win the quality competition and the price as reasonable as well for this size. I used the Goodyear, Dunlop and Continental tyres i personally think that the models of those brands are worse than the Yokohama Advan Sport V105. Read more Collapse

This is the second set of tires of that brand in this car. The first set I had was the Yokohama Advan Sport 225/45/17 ZR – I drove about 50000 miles with them. Due to the fact that the tire is retreaded from the inside in the Honda Accord wagon, I was forced to buy new Yokohama Advan Sport V105 222/45/17 ZR 94 Y (despite the fact that the tread in the old tyres was still about 1,5-2,5 inches). I’m very pleased with them though. Very good grip while cornering at higher speeds! Reliable guidance on the dry and wet asphalt. I would recommend them to all. Read more Collapse
