After spending a ridiculous amount of time considering and studying the options from all the usual suspect, I fitted Yokohama Advan Flava V701 tyres to my 2007 MkIII Mazda MX5 (29,000 miles) as a replacement for the factory-fitted Yokohama Advan originals - which still had 4mm tread remaining but the outer side walls were cracking due to sun exposure etc. The first immediately noticeable improvement was the lower road noise . . . and I mean much lower! Comfort has also been dramatically improved: potholes and speed bumps are no longer teeth-jarring. Feedback from the tyres is tip top and every bit of the MX5 'Jinba Ittai' experience is retained. It's too early to comment on how well the tyres last, or on fuel economy. Would I make the same choice again? Definitely yes!
