Review on Yokohama ADVAN Sport V103 245/50 R18 100W summer by Andrey Marinov ᠌

Revainrating 5 out of 5

A valuable purchase, some advantages!

For four seasons, I have worn out two sets, namely, I have worn out, and not killed in the pits or on the curb. Only two wheels were badly damaged - one had a small cut on the sidewall on a sharp stone when driving in a rut on a dirt road (repaired), and the second had a tread pierced on some kind of piece of iron at the junction of the bridge (also repaired and left as a spare). The day before yesterday I received another, third in a row, new set of wheels in the shopping mall. Rubber is great. Handling and braking properties are at a height, I did not notice bad behavior in a rut. Ideal for speed riders who appreciate control and perfect steering response in any turn at any speed.

Pros
  • The wheels perfectly hold the road, the car (Audi A 6, four-wheel drive, wheel size 225\50\17) goes smoothly, as if on rails. Good on dry and wet roads. Structurally strong sidewalls with an undercut for the rim, not a single hernia (I got into the pits at a decent speed). The new ones have a beautiful and rather aggressive appearance. Acceptable price.
Cons
  • The wheels are enough for 45-50 thousand kilometers. They wear out by 40-50% for 25-30 thousand km and by 90-95%, i. e. to wear indicators, for about another 15 thousand km. The tire shop grumbles a little when assembling the wheels. For lovers of comfort a bit noisy. Not recommended for dirt roads and low (below +5) temperatures.
