Yokohama Parada Spec II... your thoughts?

[PocketRocket]

Bro TR, best is save some lil extra money, use 15 inch japanese rims and invest in 195/55/15 ad07 or wait for ad08's...fregin good driving experience for any car

or more for dual conditions, get toyo T1-R..no regrets

other alternatives is maybe hankook RS-2 or S-drive...continentals made in Germany also chun...
sometimes get better traction tires gives u piece of mind that ur in control...not necessary have to all out racing....michelin silent tires all i think thrice of getting..noise i can bear, but no sacrifice for traction

If not mistaken Parada dont have any 195/55/15... The 50 series look so thin... If got 55 series sure I buy... Yet the price are quite reasonable for a 'weird-looking' tyre tread...

the best part of ad07is it has the grip until the tyre bald, but only can last for 1 year because of the threadwear is so fast, still ad07 is the best i think huhu..as for my statement for parada grip almost the same as ad07..i mean almost but not there yet...and after 50% threadwear it dont have the grip at all... people says tayar sudah kerass

Actually.. you need to measure tyres according to Mileage and how much stress usage on it.. a year is quite vague... some kaki jalan all the time n racing all night, maybe less than a year already bald... those who goes for track days, on the 3rd track day also finish already tyre tread..

however.. i agree it wears fast... most good grip tyres do... but i still think falken ziex series wears faster

i use hankook v12 evo.for me it's ok.the thread pattern n the side wall look nice.

 

[monetele]

from my experience grip almost like ad07, after 50% tyre usage no grip at all...

every tyres after 50% sure no grip lo

 

[PocketRocket]

correction, if you use AD07 until bald still got grip provided its within the year of production.

*friends experience going genting with bald AD07*

I imagine it might be asymmetrical thread design..hihi..:bandit:

next month i am taking parada spec 2, so sexy da bunga

sifoo buy tyre also wan see sexy or not... later go pasar buy vege also must see the tauke-niah sexy or not...

parada spec 2 got soft sidewall... not recommended if u going for high profile tyre...
lightweight car with low profile should benefit

 

[angrysnail]

too soft side wall?..wahhh..very easy to break off if u crash to divider..wah2..

Been using the Parada's for a year now...

No track days but i do have spirited drives now and then...
Am using them on a 20 year old car with very minor handling enhancements.

Tyres of course look good.

But it provides more than sufficient grip for street use... Even high speed driving, switching lanes... my car rarely understeers anymore when pushed at a familiar corner

However i think perhaps wont be so ideal on a track at higher temperatures and with much more aggressive driving.

On the wet it's OK... The front's stray slightly when running over puddles... i don't think the water dispersion on the parada isn't too good...

It's much better on dry than on wet.

I drive everyday and the tyre thread is still at about 70% front, and 80% rear.

Big downside is noise..lol... i don't think they were engineered at all for noise reduction...hahaha

Thats my experience :)
