ADVAN HF Type-D A008

Exclusively for Porsche

At the start of the 1980s, YOKOHAMA released the ultra-high performance tyre YOKOHAMA A008 in Europe (called ADVAN HF Type D in Japan). The tyre was an instant hit with people who enjoyed track driving, and among them were members of the Porsche Owners Club. Most of these members were driving on A008 tyres fitted on Porsche sports cars models and loved the feel. Following this, Yokohama recreated the A008 and produced the A008P exclusively for Porsche.

Exceptional dry traction

Features a polyester cord body and twin steel belts reinforced by a layer of nylon to help deliver exceptional dry traction and predictable handling.

High performance tread compound

The A008 features a high performance tread compound molded into an asymmetric design.
