Yokohama Advan tyres OE on new Lexus RX

Yokohama Rubber is supplying its Advan V61 tyres to Lexus for use as an original equipment (OE) option on the new fifth-generation RX.

Available throughout Europe now, the new Lexus RX will be fitted with 235/60R19 103V size Advan V61 tyres.

The Advan V61 is a high-performance tyre under the Advan brand, Yokohama Rubber’s flagship tyre brand. The Advan V61 tyres being fitted on the RX feature a specially designed structure that delivers the comfortable ride and stable handling expected from a luxury SUV.

The tyre also features a highly rigid cover material that contributes to an exceptionally quiet ride and a compound that reduces the tyre’s heat generation and enhances its environmental performance, according to Yokohama.
