ADVAN Neova AD07

has anyone used these?? Better then stock advan??
I know that the ADVAN Neova line is just bout the best yokos in japan, but the
AD07 is the american model number (a japan model # is something like A006). It say thay have to be used and store at 14 degress or higher because the compond is good and can't be cold. They have a 180 tread wear, AA traction and A temp.(the last one is temp, right??). Anyways a review would be good, better if campared stock car-to-stock car against stock Advan's.

Do a search. I've been on Neovas for ~5000 miles and love them. I've written a few posts with my thoughts.

One of the best tires out right now. Better than the BFG KD and I'd even say better than the Michelin PS2

how's the inner shoulder wear with the neovoa's? I advans wore off the inner ~1" really badly. Had the camber checked and it looked fine. the race shop I was at said he had seen this on several other evo's on the stock advans. I did get 15k out of them though.

Do you have those mounted on 17x8's or did you get wider wheels? I have 8" wide wheels and decided to go with the 245/40-17s but would prefer the 255's if they will work.

This has very little to do with camber. All Evo's have too much positive "toe out" which is what is causing the excessive inner wear.

Have your toe checked and corrected!

i have 245/40-17 on a 17x8.5

good tire, like it better than the S-03 i had on my STi, and WRX. its smooth riding, has exellent dry grip (no rain lately so?? i assume just as good). the sidewall isnt as stiff as the A046D, but its not soft.

I have 235/40/18 Neovas on my 18x8.5 Volks. I absolutely love the tires. The grip is unbelievable, no noise and slightly better ride IMO. I do like them better than the stockers (gone at 17k) I now have 23k, so 6k on the Neovas. Highly reccomend, but damn are they pricey!
