10221 - 245/40ZR17/SL - AVS Sport - Yokohama Tires

Features and Benefits of Item #10221

AVS Sport is Yokohama's street version of their winning Formula Atlantic race rain tire. Its Y-shaped tread pattern featuring a continuous center block, reduces the amount of groove area, provides a larger contact patch, greater stability on wet surfaces and monster grip in the dry. You'll experience a sense of control that's like riding on rails.

The even groove distribution of the AVS Sport's Y-shaped tread pattern improves drainage as much as 10% over comparable tires because water travels less distance to the groove
Sub-grooves on the shoulder's edge divide the large blocks and reduce the amount of outside tire noise
Our proprietary Super Performance Silica (SPS) ultra-high performance tread compound resists wear, maximizes dry grip and optimizes wet traction
Yokohama's innovative SofTech belt technology design enhances the AVS Sport's lateral grip to improve handling and riding comfort
Yokohama's jointless cap and layer construction, strengthened by a steel sidewall insert, effortlessly earns a Y-speed rating up to 186 mph
