What owners say

No road-test results yet, so every score here comes from owner reviews found online.

How scores work

Relative score: 0–100. Blends road tests (60%) and owner reviews (40%) category by category, the same way on every TireWheelGuide page. With only one of the two, the missing half is estimated from it, so the score stays closer to average. It needs at least one road test or five owner reviews.
Road tests: 0–100 per score, from published tests, newer tests counting more. Each result is compared with every other tire in the same test, so a win against a strong field counts for more. The average tested tire gets 70, the best 100; with only one or two tests a tire stays nearer 70. The discipline rows show % of the best tire in that test.
Owner reviews: 0–100 from the owner reviews we found online, adjusted for how generously each site rates and scaled like the road tests: the average tested tire gets 70. With only a few reviews a tire stays near the average.

What owners like and dislike

Themes extracted from 46 owner reviews found online.

The Yokohama ADVAN Sport receives a polarizing mix of reviews, with users praising its sharp steering response, dry grip, and communicative feedback, while heavily criticizing its high road noise, stiff ride, and exceptionally rapid tread wear. While some drivers find them to be a capable, performance-oriented summer tire offering good value, a significant portion of users report disappointment compared to premium alternatives like Michelin or Goodyear.

Pros

Exceptional dry grip and handling performance
Precise steering response and excellent road feedback
Predictable behavior when pushed near the limit
Competitive price point compared to top-tier rivals

Cons

Unacceptably high and intrusive road noise
Very rapid tread wear with many reporting early replacement under 10,000 miles
Stiff, harsh ride quality
Subpar wet weather grip and aquaplaning resistance near the limit

Worth knowing

Several drivers noted that the tires generated unbearable cabin noise on luxury and commuter sedans like the Audi A7 and Nissan Maxima.
Heavier vehicles and performance hatchbacks experienced accelerated tread wear, with multiple users needing replacements well before 10,000 to 12,000 miles.
