I get them for store cost which makes me.
how do you like the 750's? thats what i am getting next, they look like a great tire that is comparable to the falken zeix 502's....
Dont know if your thinkin of the right tire, temp.....
here click this link......LINK .......dont think it's a race only brother......plus I read an article in SCC that says Yokohama used a dif compound to make these last longer too......but that could be a ploy just to sell these bad boys.....tho, i havent had any problems with em.
i know what the parada spec 2 is, its a race tire, trust me, when i say race only i guess i should have elaborated on that, it is a tire that is ment for track use but can see street duty, due to its rubber compound it wears quickly and its tread design is poor for water dispersion, just like the falken azenis, the paradas i recommend only for track or summer driving and only if you got the cheddah to replace tires often
I dunno.....I rolled on these for the past 6 months and it rained alot here over the summer and I had zero problems with wet traction.....I was taken corners and flyen thru huge puddles without hydroplaining.......my personal opinion---these tires will prolly only last a year on everyday driving as far as treadwear goes, but I think its a good design for water dispersement.
the reason i say this is that the parada spec 2 has a strikingly similar design to the azenis tires, which have poor wet traction, if you compared this tire to a bridgestone re-750 or the falken ze-502's you would say that the parada spec 2 has no wet traction in comparison, i have experienced the azenis in the rain, and it was not fun
....yeah that proly didnt look good
Kumho Ecsta Supra 712 in 245/45/17
i like to call um Stock
i am rolling the same as well...205/45/17 parada spec-2's and i love them. They have a pretty damn good tread wear rating, so don't know why you guys think they won't last....i have had them for a few months and i have not had traction problems yet...i think this is one of the best tires for the price...
