In 205/40/R16?

Any first hand experience? How are they? I don't want to pull the trigger on some shitty tires.

 

Pretty poor in the wet, (like all Yoko's really), and I imagine for very heavy track use won't last long, after 4-5 laps of Anglesey race circuit mine had started to melt and were pretty lairy on high speed corners.

Mine have lasted 3 trackdays, just

 

It's a fully street car. MIGHT see one track day a year.

 

Probably last pretty well then. Awful grip in the wet though.

Limits are controlable etc, they're just not particularly high limits. 1st, 2nd and to a degree most of 3rd are useless.

 

Pirelli P-Zero Nero is the best all around tire I've used on the street in terms of grip, noise, rain, and wear. Too bad they don't make a 15".

 

they used to. followed every groove in the pavement. drove me NUTS. I replaced mine with the then-brand-new azenis 615s and was much happier.

parada spec 2 is an old tire with old compound.

 

Yeah, Yokos are rough in the wet. Look into Falken maybe?

 

/\ ban this faggit

 

I'm on my second set of Spec-2s right now. Really good grip when dry, dangerous on wet roads. They do need one or two wheelspins to get them warmed up before gripping down like a sucker. They do give up after 5-6 laps on the track. The best all around tyre I have EVER tried on the Miata is the Goodyear Eagle F1 GS-D3. Excellent both on wet and dry, track performance is solid and doesn't taper down as the lap count increases.

Lol

Dude there are better tires in the market.

 

so the word filter on the proper spelling isn't a hint?

 

Parada S2 is more of a "show" tire...really designed for it's cool tread.


I give a big middle finger to Hankook for not making the new RS3 in 215-40/17.
