Yokohama Tire has added a new member to its iconic ultra high-performance ADVAN® line: the ADVAN Fleva™ V701. Now available in the U.S., the V- and W-rated Fleva comes in 67 sizes with 15- to 20-inch fitments, and offers superb wet and dry braking, crisp handling and a quiet ride.
“The ADVAN Fleva V701 was developed for customers who are looking to elevate their driving experience,” said Duane Sampson, Yokohama product marketing manager. “As Yokohama’s latest ultra high-performance summer tire, it features a silica-infused compound combined with tread features engineered to provide confidence in both wet and dry conditions while keeping road noise to a minimum.”
Benefits of the Fleva include:
-- Powerful wet braking, which is achieved by jagged circumferential grooves that resist hydroplaning for shorter stops.
-- Quick, precise handling thanks to solid outside ribs that increase block stiffness for high-speed stability.
-- Excellent lateral grip for high-speed wet performance is provided by the drop point grooves which move the water from under the tread.
-- A quiet ride is ensured via the offset tread pattern that increases stability and reduces pattern noise.
