17/17 and 17/18 Tire Choices - not much left.

[DA NSX]

Are Yoko Advan Fleva in factory sizes still available for 17" 215 and 245? I see the 2002 CTSC listing on BaT right now has them with a relatively new installation, but I can't get any of the major tire sites to show available.

If you're running 17/17, Advan Flevas are available in stock sizes - 215/45R17 for the fronts and 255/40R17 for the rears. No 245/40. You can see all the sizes available here under "view all specs": https://www.yokohamatire.com/tires/advan-fleva-v701

Here they are on Amazon:
Front https://www.amazon.com/Yokohama-110170144-PARADA-SPEC-X/dp/B07M8DH9YQ
Rear https://www.amazon.com/Yokohama-ADVAN-SPORT-40r17-110170151/dp/B07M8P2WMP

I've run Flevas on cars in the past and it's a great 300TW summer tire. Planning on getting them for my next set. I believe it is just an updated Yokohama S.Drive, which was also a solid tire.

Ah. That’s why I can’t see it on the other sites - they don’t have the 245 rear.

Guess it’s back to another set of 200TW Yoko for me.

Thanks for reply.

Not NSX experience but I ran AD08Rs on my S2000 and changed to AD09s last year. For street driving, they felt very similar with the AD09s feeling overall a bit better but that could be more the fact that they were new tires. They apparently have better wet traction due to compound differences but I haven't done a ton of wet driving to notice a difference.

I hope so, That is my only complaint with the AD08Rs. Even with 100% tread, they seemed like they wanted to break loose in the wet at cruising speeds.

+1 for the Flevas. Just installed and a world of improvement along with a new alignment. Mistakenly thought OEM rear was 245, but these Flevas in stock 255 size are just what I want for the street.
