Yokohama 275/40 R21 107Y Advan Sport V107E 2024

Yokohama ADVAN Sport V107E 275/40 R21 107Y is a summer ultra-high-performance tyre designed for sporty passenger cars and selected SUV applications. This exact 275/40 R21 XL configuration combines a 275 mm section width, 40-series profile and Y speed rating, giving it a strong focus on high-speed stability, steering response and dry-road control. Yokohama places the ADVAN Sport V107 in its Sport/Touring range and describes it as suitable for demanding road use.

For Dwbtyres buyers, the V107E is particularly relevant when a large 21-inch wheel requires a tyre that balances performance with everyday road refinement. The exact size is listed with an XL construction, 107 load index and 300 km/h Y rating. European product data also identifies this version with an A wet-grip rating and A external noise classification at 69 dB, making wet braking and controlled road noise important parts of its specification.

Performance-focused tread design

The ADVAN Sport V107 uses three wide plus one main circumferential groove arrangement with variable groove widths. Yokohama designed these grooves to support hydroplaning resistance at higher speeds. A high-rigidity wide shoulder helps maintain tread stability and dry grip, while silent sipes along the ribs are intended to control noise. The combination gives the V107E a clearly performance-oriented tread without making it a track-only tyre.

Dry-road steering and cornering

The 275 mm footprint and 40-series sidewall provide a useful balance between contact area and sidewall support. On dry pavement, the V107's rigid shoulder construction is designed to maintain grip and steering precision through faster corners. The 107Y service description permits a maximum load of 975 kg per tyre and a rated maximum speed of 300 km/h, subject to the vehicle manufacturer's requirements and correct inflation pressure.

Wet grip and everyday road behaviour

Wet performance is one of the stronger documented characteristics of this exact configuration. The EU tyre data lists wet grip A, while the main grooves are designed to move water away from the contact area. That does not eliminate aquaplaning risk, but it gives the tyre a useful specification for drivers who regularly encounter wet roads. The V107 remains a summer tyre and is not intended to replace a winter tyre in cold-weather conditions.

Comfort, noise and ride quality

The V107 is positioned by Yokohama as a performance tyre with premium comfort. Its silent-sipe technology is intended to reduce external vehicle noise, and the exact 275/40 R21 version is listed at 69 dB with an A external noise class. Nevertheless, the 40-series profile and 21-inch wheel combination will naturally transmit more road texture than a higher-profile touring configuration. Drivers choosing this tyre are therefore prioritising performance and steering control while retaining a reasonable level of refinement.

Who should choose the V107E?

This Yokohama configuration is best suited to drivers of sporty passenger cars and compatible SUVs who want precise steering, strong dry grip and dependable wet-road braking from a large-diameter summer tyre. It is less suitable for off-road driving, winter conditions or buyers whose main priority is maximum mileage rather than handling. Drivers looking to buy car tyres in UAE should confirm the vehicle's approved 275/40 R21 107Y XL specification before purchase, particularly where front and rear axle sizes differ.
