The Yokohama ADVAN A052 245/40R17 is an extreme performance summer tire, designed for enthusiast drivers who participate in autocross, track days, and high-performance driving events while maintaining street usability. Its motorsports-derived MS compound and asymmetric tread design focus on maximum grip and track durability with cooling features for sustained performance.
The tire features a low-void tread pattern with wide center ribs and an expansive outboard shoulder for maximum contact patch, while notches in the outboard micro groove improve cooling during track use. Two wide circumferential grooves and a notched inboard shoulder help with water evacuation, and the rounded tread profile distributes pressure evenly across the footprint. Driver feedback indicates exceptional dry performance with good wet capabilities and comfort, though treadwear is limited as expected for this category.
Compared to standard performance summer tires, it prioritizes maximum grip and track capability over longevity and all-weather versatility. Overall, it's a solid choice for sports cars and performance vehicles used primarily for track events, autocross competition, and spirited driving in warm weather conditions.
