Yokohama ADVAN Fleva V701

The ADVAN Fleva V701 is a compelling choice for drivers who prioritize wet grip, boasting a score of 9 that exceeds the category average of 7.9. This makes it particularly well-suited for regions with frequent rain. However, its dry grip rating of 8 slightly trails behind the segment's average, which may be a consideration for those who push their cars hard in dry conditions. In terms of treadlife, the ADVAN Fleva V701 offers a score of 7.3, which is a bit above the category average, suggesting a longer lifespan than some competitors. However, the lack of a treadwear warranty could be a drawback for those looking for assurance on longevity. Additionally, the 'R' speed rating is lower than what many expect in this segment, potentially limiting its appeal to those who seek higher speed performance. Compared to its competitors like the Firestone Firehawk Indy 500 and Falken Azenis FK510, the ADVAN Fleva V701 stands out for its wet grip but falls short in dry grip and speed rating. The Falken Azenis FK510, for example, offers a treadwear warranty, which might appeal to those concerned about tire longevity. If high-speed capability is a priority, you might want to consider other options like the Toyo Proxes Sport 2, which typically offers higher speed ratings. However, if wet performance is your main concern, the ADVAN Fleva V701 is a strong contender.
