Hi,

Running a set on my LCR, just changed the front to F1s, pradas were good in the dry but a lot of aqu******ing in not a lot of surface water.

 

[Mikey P]

so witch you prefer in the dry? im not realy botherd how they perform in the wet coz we all know unless you spend silly money on wet tyres your never gona get decent grip in the wet,cheers

If you want really sticky legal tyres go for Toyo 888's, they'll last a summer of hard driving an then you can put winrter tyres back on!
Paradas are pretty good, but only in the dry, the 888's are really really good in the dry and not as bad as you'd expect in the wet!

 

[Mikey P]

thats what im looking for, im on the pirelli's still at the mo and they jst cant handle the power.

go goodyear eagle f1 isymetric (cant spell) before i had dunlop sport on an couldnt put power down but now have the goodyear f1s an there really good. an not to bad in wet neither.

I have had the paradas all round. Never again. You slide everywehere in the wet, not much fun. Go F1.

Just about to change the paradas on the front today for Falken Fk 452's all round. Not had them on the front yet so watch this space. Goodyears are pricey for what they are imo.

Not a bad place for tyres and quick delivery.

I have Paradas on my 306 GTi-6,

excellent tyres on it but on an LCR i cant advise

 

[J0N]

Go for the F1's, they really are that good if a bit expensive! I've heard the Yoko's are very noisy because of the tread pattern and they are nothing short of suicidal in the wet. I've heard mixed reports on the Falkens but they are a good price.

 

[Nev_LCR]

I like them. For a budget track tyre they are worth it. I never drive hard in the wet so don't really bother me.

Depends what you are using them for. Road. Track. Wet. dry.

 

[rikwheeler]

Think I'm going to go to the F1s. They are expensive but after reading a lot of threads of here they seem to be the ones to go for.
Just want to double check. Are these the ones I need for an LCR:

Does anyone know a cheaper place to get these?

 

[J0N]

They're the fellas, it's a good price depending on the delivery and fitting costs. When I was looking I went all over getting prices, the most expensive being a whopping £700 and the best was £475 for 4 fitted and balanced. Money well spent IMO and I'll definately be buying them again.

 

[rikwheeler]

Does anyone know anywhere cheaper? Going to be £420 delivered and can get a mate to fit them for £20

 

[mrvavavoom]

im running toyo t1-r tyres they are a pretty good all round tyre pretty quiet as well

That's a damn good price.

in runnin paradas on ly lcr and tbh with 340bhp even in the dry with traction off i struggle for grip untill 3rd gear lol and they aint much kop in the wet as said above,now when i had the 350bhp ihi'd ibiza it was on 15inch wheels with toyo r888's the grip was awesome even done a track day in the wet and they were superb.

So imo id go for 888's
