UHP tires are designed to handle extreme speeds, so you should carefully choose such tires for your sporty car. A standout model in this category from Yokohama is the Advan Sport A/S, which is the predecessor to the Advan Sport A/S+. This all season UHP tire is crafted for the best performance in traction, grip, and steering at high speeds.
To begin with, the Yokohama Advan Sport A/S uses a new tread compound made of high grade silica and polymers. This design results in shorter braking distances in wet and slippery settings. In addition, the larger shoulder blocks boost the cornering ability, while the optimized sidewall build ensures responsive handling and dynamic steering. Aside from that, it has an asymmetrical tread pattern with linear grooves and abundant siping that provides lots of biting edges for better traction.
Moreover, the engineers incorporated an optimized pitch variation to reduce road noise, allowing for a cozier and quieter ride, even at high speeds. The flatter contour profile ensures proper weight spread, promoting even wear and longer tire life. Also, its sidewalls protect the rims from impacts while giving your ride a stylish look. Besides, the rubber formula lowers the rolling resistance to lower fuel use. Lastly, the Advan Sport A/S is accessible in a wide selection of sizes, ranging from 17" to 20" rim diameters. This model is a great choice for various passenger vehicles, including the Audi RS5, Porsche 911, and Volvo V60.
