Tyre reviews

[306clot]

hi all, just finished paining the new wheels and now time to choose some rubber to put on them, my question is what are peoples reviews of the Yokohama Parada Spec 2 and the Falken ZE914 and what would people go for?

pilot sport 3.

Yep second Welshpug. One of the best road legal tyres out there imo

I think there are better but as an all rounder that isn't too expensive they are very good.

I don't rate parada's at all, fair soft rubber compound but the sidewalls are flexy as hell and they really don't cope with slippery roads.

Eagle F1's used to be the dogs danglies but they stopped doing them in a 15" a few years back.


The falkens are a decent shout if you're tight on cash.

Im a massive Michelin fan and for damn good reason, have had a few different sets on various cars now and they never let me down, always quiet, very grippy and last well.

I had F1s on my car before i wore them out and got PS3s. The F1s were very good but not a patch on the PS3s.

good to know, I'm still on PE2's myself but a friend has PS3's on his 205 that I've driven, they feel pretty much the same.

I have spec 2s on mine and love them in the dry. Avoid the wet....

They are. They just merged the two lines to make life easier

I have seen many reviews of Michelin tyres but have heard that the rubber can be very hard that's why I wa looking for a tyre that is a bit softer but not as soft as what I have now toyo t1-r as they are dreadfull to drive on and haven't last 10 mins

theyre not hard at all, only hard when theyre 5-6 years old

I found the falkens were pretty good on the gti for the price of then

If somebody spits out of a window you're in for a fun drive with Spec II's
