Overview
The Yokohama Advan A052 is an ultra-high performance summer tire engineered for enthusiasts who demand maximum grip, precision, and responsiveness on both street and track. Sized at 255/35ZR19 with a 96Y speed rating, this tire is a popular upgrade choice for Subaru WRX STI and BRZ owners looking to enhance their vehicle’s handling capabilities during spirited driving or track events. While it fits a broad range of performance vehicles, its dimensions and performance characteristics align well with Subaru’s sport models.
Designed with Yokohama’s advanced tread compound and asymmetric tread pattern, the Advan A052 balances exceptional dry traction with reliable wet performance. Its construction focuses on maximizing contact patch stability and efficient heat dissipation, which ensures consistent grip and predictable behavior under aggressive cornering and braking.

This tire complements Subaru’s dynamic chassis, helping drivers extract more from their vehicle’s suspension and powertrain.
