Advan Sport V107 to come factory equipped on Lexus RZ

Hiratsuka, Japan—The Yokohama Rubber Co., Ltd., announced that it has begun supplying its ADVAN Sport V107 tires as original equipment (OE) for the special edition RZ 600e “F SPORT Performance” model of the Lexus RZ, an SUV-type battery electric vehicle (BEV) with enhanced motor output. The RZ 600e “F SPORT Performance” went on sale starting in March 2026 in Asia, including Japan, Australia, Latin America, Africa, and other regions. The tire sizes are 255/40ZR21 (102Y) for the front and 295/35ZR21 (107Y) for the rear.

The ADVAN Sport V107 is an ultra-high performance tire under the ADVAN brand, YOKOHAMA’s global flagship tire brand, and is targeted for use on premium car categories. The tires are jointly developed with leading premium car manufacturers and put through rigorous testing at Yokohama Rubber’s test center at the Nürburgring, widely considered to be the world’s most demanding test course. While achieving a perfect balance of driving performance combined with superior comfort and safety characteristics, the ADVAN Sport V107 delivers a high-level combination of dry/wet performance and steering stability.

Yokohama Rubber’s ADVAN series tires are already being used on a number of Lexus models, with the ADVAN V61 premium SUV tire coming factory-equipped on the Lexus RX*, RZ, and LBX.
*RX models sold outside Japan are equipped with ADVAN V61 tires.

Under Yokohama Rubber’s three-year (2024–2026) medium-term management plan, Yokohama Transformation 2026 (YX2026), the consumer tire business aims to maximize the sales ratios of high-value-added tires. One of the key initiatives under this strategy is promoting the global flagship ADVAN brand tires and the GEOLANDAR brand tires for SUVs and pickup trucks as original equipment for new cars.
