Yokohama Rubber supplies its flagship ADVAN Sport V107 tyres for the BMW 7 Series and all-electric i7
The ADVAN Sport V107 is an ultra-high performance tyre in YOKOHAMA’s flagship ADVAN brand. The supplied tyres were jointly developed with the BMW Group and feature a specially developed compound and an optimised tread pattern to achieve excellent steering stability and a quiet ride.
The tyres also have received the EU labelling system’s highest “A” grade for rolling resistance. The application of Yokohama Rubber’s mound profile technology, which evenly distributes surface contact pressure, also contributes to the achievement of the tyres’ enhanced dry performance and wear resistance. In addition, the optimised tyre structure helps deliver the good steering stability that is essential for high-power premium cars.
