The Yokohama Rubber Co. Ltd. is supplying its Advan V61 tyres as original equipment (OE) for the fifth-generation Lexus RX. Launched in Japan and overseas, including Europe, from this November, the new RX is specifically being fitted with 235/60R19 103V size Advan V61 tyres.
According to Yokohama, the ADVAN V61 tyres being installed on the RX feature a specially designed structure that “delivers the comfortable ride and stable handling befitting a luxury SUV such as the RX”. The tyre also features a highly rigid cover material that contributes to “an exceptionally quiet ride” and a compound designed to reduce the tyre’s heat generation and enhances its environmental performance.
At the end of November 2022, Bridgestone announced that it too is supplying tyres to the Lexus RX.
