“Yokohama advan fleva v701? Currently looking at stock sizes for my 99 MRS and the v701s are the only decent set I can find. I live in Canada and I was planning on ordering them for next week, and just thought to do one more validation check before driving out to Bellingham. Pretty new to picking out my own tires, trying to also stay within 550-600usd or maxish 800-850cad including tax if possible.”

From Reddit, forums and review threads. Not part of our score
Community discussions around the Yokohama ADVAN Fleva V701 primarily consist of prospective buyers asking about daily drivability, treadwear longevity, and value compared to premium alternatives. Those considering or using them note solid availability in smaller or niche wheel sizes and appreciate their accessible price point. The limited direct experiential feedback praises responsive turn-in, stiffer sidewalls, and decent ride comfort compared to rival sporty summer tires.
“Online reviews in general are such a crapshoot. So many times you see products with diametrically opposed opinions. It's tough to sift through to figure out what may be true for your own application/situation. I'm sure part of the reason less people buy the Vredestein is brand recognition. Like underscore...I would say I've never heard of them...other than that I have seen their brand as I've been looking for tires to go on my 15" OZ rally wheels. They had a tire in an uncommon 215-50-15. Since you have first hand experience that is positive, that's probably worth more than 99% of online reviews. I'll probably go with Yokohama Advan Fleva v701 in 205-55-15 eventually. I've seen glowing reviews for them and reviews that say they are garbage. I'd like to get Yokohama Advan HF Type-D for their period correctness, and because I just think they look cool ( and isn't that what's most important in a tire? ) ...but they are difficult to get in the States. Well, maybe not difficult, just costly. When I looked on Nengun, it was about $650 for shipping on a set of 4. Most UK & European suppliers I've found won't even ship them to the US. But I'm getting way off topic here.”
“Suggestiona on tyres Hi everyone, Just wanted to ask if you guys ever had Yokohama Advan Fleva V701. My FK2 has nearly 400bhp and I’m not using it daily anymore as I want it to preserve the baby. My drive is a bit aggressive occasionally but nothing crazy or track day as I don’t have the time. I would like to know if you guys ever had this specific type of tyre. What you think about? They’re actually good? I wouldn’t like to buy again the Michelin pilot sport 4s which I found absolutely rubbish. I found those yoko for the decent price of 98£ each. So I buy it or should I move to Pirelli PZero pZ4 sport ?”
“I just got the Yokohama Advan Fleva V701's and I like them a lot. The turn in is quicker and the feel is better than the Indy 500's that I had before. They feel more solid and less vague.The sidewall seems a bit stiffer, but somehow the ride is not as harsh.”

Every category score blends two independent signals. 60% comes from professional tire tests (braking distances, lap times, noise measurements), each result compared with every other tire in the same test and newer tests counting more. 40% comes from owner reviews found online, adjusted for how generously each site rates. Both use one scale: the average tested tire gets 70, the best 100. When a tire has only one of the two, the missing half is estimated from the other and the score stays closer to average; with no road test and fewer than five owner reviews it gets no score yet.
Community buzz from Reddit and forums is shown for context only — it never changes the score.
