Let's compare two summer tyres: the Yokohama Advan Sport V107 and the Michelin Pilot Sport 5. These tyres are from renowned manufacturers Yokohama and Michelin respectively, both providing high-quality tyre options.
The Yokohama Advan Sport V107 shines in terms of dry handling and braking. However, as shown in Autobild’s 2018 and 2023 tyre tests, these tyres show some weaknesses in aquaplaning and a relatively high wearing rate. The Yokohama Advan Sport V107 is best suited for sporty drivers who value precision and feedback in handling situations.
On the other hand, the Michelin Pilot Sport 5 replaced previous models Michelin Pilot Sport 4 and Michelin Pilot Sport 3. It has an impressive rating of 97%, thanks to its balanced performance. It stands out for its wear rate, aquaplaning resistance, and dry handling. However, it could use some improvement in wet grip. If you're after a balanced tyre with a predictable performance under various conditions and long tread life, consider Michelin Pilot Sport 5.
From mutual test positions in the ADAC and Autobild 2018 tests, it’s clear that Michelin Pilot Sport 5 generally ranked higher. The Michelin tyre placed 3rd and 6th respectively, while the Yokohama tyre placed 6th and 4th in the same tests.
In conclusion, while Yokohama Advan Sport V107 offers a sportier feel and is excellent in dry conditions, it can struggle a bit in wet conditions and shows quicker wear. It further requires more time to heat up, which might affect its performance in cooler climates. On the other hand, the Michelin Pilot Sport 5 has consistent performance, excellent tread life, lower eco impact, and fare well in most weather conditions. Customers may consider factoring costs, as Pilot Sport 5 is more expensive.
