hi, Just wondering what everyone's opinions are on the 2 tires above. Which is better and why? Any exp with them posted here would be most helpful.
Thanks

Never driven on Paradas. But I've had the 712's for about a year. They have above average grip, even in rain. When pushed hard in corners, they give you a lot of audible feedback before they totally break lose. Some people like this, some don't. Definately a great tire for the price.

If you're going to drive hard, don't get the Paradas. I've driven them in an auto-x event and they were okay. I've driven them in canyons and I was kinda scared. And I've driven them in the rain and they skip around too much. But I've read that they're coming out with the Parada II, so you might wanna give it a try...BTW, no experience with the Kumhos. :)

kabal, look into sumitomos, they are soft and cheap if you like that.

the HTR Z II's have like 220 treadwear. If you want even softer, check the pirelli P7000. They are like 160 :)
