The Continental PremiumContact 7 is a highly rated tyre, superseding both the Continental PremiumContact 6 and the Continental ContiPremiumContact 5. It is a touring summer tyre made in various European countries, renowned for its aquaplaning capabilities and low rolling resistance. Test results from Autobild show that it ranks 5th out of 50 tyres, showcasing its overall impressive performance. Tyre Reviews also gave it high points for wet braking, aquaplaning, comfort, exterior noise and rolling resistance. However, the tyre is marked down for its high price, despite its long service life according to TyreReviews.com 2023 and autobild 2023 results.
The Yokohama Advan Sport V107 on the other hand, is a summer tyre that offers a sporty driving experience. According to the TyreReviews.com 2023, it excels in dry handling, offering quick steering and greater feedback, without showing considerable wear even on aggressive dry handling circuits. However, the tyre has its drawbacks. In wet conditions, the stopping performance is compromised across all tests. Additionally, it needs more time to warm up which could impact performance in cooler climates, and was described as rougher across potholes, hinting at potential comfort issues. The tyre also has high rolling resistance, and received marks down for its restricted service life, elevated price, and high rolling resistance in the autobild 2023 tests.
In direct comparison between the two tyres, the Continental PremiumContact 7 offered by Continental demonstrates superior performance in various areas but comes at a higher price. The Yokohama Advan Sport V107 from Yokohama may offer a fun and sporty experience, but underperforms in testing, particularly in wet conditions and comfort. Although it outperforms Continental in Autobild's ranking, taking the 4th place with its best features seen in dry braking.
In conclusion, if you are looking for a reliable, premium tyre that performs exceptionally in a wide range of conditions, the Continental PremiumContact 7 might be your top choice, granted you are ready to pay the price. Conversely, if you are after a more sporty driving experience and dry handling is your utmost priority, you might find the Yokohama Advan Sport V107 satisfactory, but be prepared to compromise on several other features.
