Hi, I just want to share my review on this tyre. The tyres (size 205/50/R15) were fitted on my Proton Satria Neo CPS with no engine modifications, only changed the suspension to Kayaba RS Pro adjustable suspension.
Yokohama Advan Neova AD08R verdict: serves me well for 2 years and 1 month and took me about 30,000 km before wearing out completely. Stiff sidewall provides confidence during cornering and fast lane change but somehow it doesn't get along very well with my adjustable suspension. The ride is harsh due to hard sidewall+stiff suspension combo.
Very grippy on dry road, even better when the tarmac is hot. Wet performance is so-so but handling on damp road is still OK, going 140 km/h in the corner is still manageable on damp road. The good thing about this tyre is the threads worn out evenly throughout the usage period. Anyway, this is the tyres that I suggest every fast driver should try at least once throughout their entire driving life.
These tires were only used on the street and have never entered racetrack
Front tyres are used till the threadwear indicator, and yet it is still grippy on hot dry road
Rear tyres still has 20% thread left
