In this comparison, we will be looking at two summer tyres: the Yokohama Advan Sport V107 and the Continental PremiumContact 7. Both are popular choices but come with their unique strengths and weaknesses.
Yokohama Advan Sport V107
The Yokohama Advan Sport V107 stood out in the Autobild tests with its impressive dry braking capabilities. It was ranked 4th out of 50 tyres in total. Its standout feature according to Tyre Reviews was dry handling. The TyreReviews.com 2023 test summary highlights that this tyre offered a fun and sporty driving experience, with quick steering and good feedback at the limit. But, it struggled with stopping in wet conditions and required more time to warm up. So, this tyre might not perform as well in cooler climates, but it could be a solid choice for dry, warm conditions or for those valuing a sportier drive. More about the tyre can be found at Yokohama's website.
Continental PremiumContact 7
On the other hand, the Continental PremiumContact 7 ranked 5th out of 50 in the Autobild test. Its best features included aquaplaning (longitudal) and rolling resistance. Tyre Reviews also ranked it highly for wet braking, aquaplaning (both longitudal and cross), comfort, exterior noise, and rolling resistance. Its strengths, according to the TyreReviews.com 2023 test summary, were in wet conditions and energy use, having the best wet braking and the lowest rolling resistance on test. However, its performance dropped off more than the competition when worn. So, if you're looking for a tyre with great wet condition performance and efficient energy use, the Continental PremiumContact 7 could be a better choice. More details can be found on Continental's website.
Final thoughts
When comparing these two tyres, while Yokohama Advan Sport V107 offers sporty driving and better handling in dry conditions, it falls short in wet conditions. Continental PremiumContact 7, on the other hand, excels in wet conditions and energy efficiency, but its performance decreases when worn. Therefore, choosing between these two tyres depends highly on the driving conditions and your personal preference.
