Tyres

[DAVE-IV]

After some advice after my Yoko Parada Spec 2's have fallen apart, looking at the following:-

MAXXIS VICTRA MAZ1
AVON ZZ3
FALKEN FK-452
TOYO PROXES T1R

Any advice or other suggestions invites please.

Toyo proxes are a good tyre

goodyear eagle f1 A2's very good tyre dry and wet

The falkens are a very good all round tyre for the money, toyos will give slightly less dry grip than the yoko pradas but more than make up for it in the wet.
Ive got no personal experience with the other two.

What do you use the car for? Does tyre wear bother you or do you just want maximum grip? Do you use it in the wet or is it just a fair weather car? All of those will make a big difference to what best suits you.

Just remembered i did used to have a set of avon zz3's for a while, dont rate them at all. Theres much better tyres around for the money.

forget what you have on your list and just go for set of goodyear F1 asymmeterics
at the end of the day your driving a high performance car so dont scrimp on the only thing that keeps you out of the ditch

I've had Toyos before but they wear out nearly as quick as Pirellis so not sure, thanks for the input.

I'll have a look at these as well, thanks.

I use the car as and when I need to really be it wet or dry, I would like a good all round tyre that will last longer than these yokohamas without falling apart.

Not scrimping just looking at my options, and thanks for you recommendation.

Thanks for the input so far, I have another option to look at before I decide.
