Yokohama ADVAN Apex V601: Tire Review

Looking for a tire that would feel at home on the track and on the road for daily use we decided to go with the Yokohama ADVAN Apex V601 for our 986 Porsche Boxster S. With the tires installed we headed for the track to put them to the test.

A couple months ago I picked up a Boxster on the cheap to flip. Videos like this make me want to keep it after it is done.

[@Grassrootsmotorsports]

The Boxster is a great fun car, and you can not beat the performance you get for what they cost.

[@barryhayes3168]

I'm going to try these out, thanks.

[@beronib888]

Not many reviews on this tire..glad I found this video thanks!

[@Grassrootsmotorsports]

Glad you enjoyed!

[@chrisjanashousky1353]

I just put these on my focus st. I thought Ford put good performance tires on the car from the factory. When it comes to cornering these tires are the best of any street tires that I have ever had on any car that I've owned and I have owned a lot. I would recommend these to any enthusiast.

putting these on my FoST today. good to know

The Loop! 😎 Nice review.

[@Grassrootsmotorsports]

Thanks!

@@Grassrootsmotorsports Thank you. I picked up four this morning for my Si.

How are these vs PS4S?

[@johnclary729]

I checked the web site and they don't have anything in the 15" wheel I can get cheap for my car, and the 17" wheels are 3-4 times as much as the 15".

你好～我來自臺灣 想請問V601這條輪胎約能行駛多少里程？ 它的適合胎壓是多少PSI?

[@salimsanchez89]

Trying to decide between these and the kumbo ecsta ps91.. thoughts?

[@stevehoughton9605]

Might move from Pilot S4 to the Apex. Almost 120$/tire cheaper also (245/275) !!

[@HavokR505]

thats exactly why im here

[@UnexplainedToday]

You ever try them? Deliberating this decision rn

[@dj0100]

Yup, also thinking about doing the same move.

[@grldm3]

Any of you go from the Michelin to these?

[@brycekiller1]

@@grldm3 Im five months late but getting these tires on tomorrow for my supra, ill letcha know if you would like.

[@charleshawk6668]

Just bought a set for my 15 wrx

[@quixtoxicmc6294]

How was it did you enjoy. Im looking for my 22 wrx please let me know

[@nickcritelli2133]

Directional or no?

[@bonestock6243]

A non directional tire super sticky and aggressive. I'm on my 3rd set with no intention of changing brand

[@c_losgarage71]

How do they compare to PS4s?

[@rustcohle3803]

Ikr, I have ps4s but I know they won't last forever, so I'm looking at advans to see what's up. Ps4s do have amazing amount of grip like no joke. Wish they were run flats tho

Drop the KZbin approved soundtrack

[@ICUinthedark]

Drop the Big Gulp sodas from 7/11 and drop some poundage while your at it...

[@OxBlitzkriegxO]

4 minutes of subjective opinion and zero test data. this is NOT a review in any way at all. thanks for literally nothing.

[@alejandroochoa3541]

Footage of them pushing the limits and literally giving details about the experience is the Data. Are you referring to technical information???…. Because that’s different. They did in fact present you data though. A whole fucking video.

[@OxBlitzkriegxO]

@@alejandroochoa3541 they give you an opinion, nothing more. no data, no direct comparisons. it was nothing more than a promo segment, paid for by yokohama. if you think any differently, then i suggest you look at things more objectively.
