The new tires deliver all of the stability in the "super high-speed range" of their predecessor, the ADVAN Sport V103, "with further improved performance on wet and dry surfaces and braking," according to Yokohama. In addition, quiet ride and a high level of comfort are finely balanced.
The Advan Sport V105 MO also is OE on the Mercedes-Benz CLS-Class and SLK-Class vehicles released in 2011.

Standard models in the new G-Class are equipped with Geolander H/T G038 SUV tires in size 265/60R18 110V.
