Should I get:
1) yokohama parada
2) kuhmo ectsa supra 712
3) nitton 450

Which should I buy?

These will be for a street driven car. I want great handling and the best traction. I dont really care about wear.

 

what size wheels are you using? I think the Paradas only come in 16in and above.

 

I have 16x7 with 40mm offset

 

bf goodrich S0-3's. hehe type goch was kind enough to supply me with some very helpful threads that talked about most performance tires and these seem to be everyones choice and since the 195 50 15 size is only 76 at tirerack you cant beat it!



missed your last post on the 16's hehe...not sure price on those...

oh okay. I run the kumhos on my stock wheels, theyre great for the price. From the LOOKS of it, the yoko's seem like theyd handle well. No experiences with Nitto.

 

1) yokohama parada - Great Dry weather, crappy wet weather
2) kuhmo ectsa supra 712 - Ok Dry weather, Great wet weather
3) nitton 450 - Just crap all around

OR

Falken Azenis - Excellent dry weather - Really crappy wet weather.

If it's down to price I'd go either Falken or Kumho.

 

Umm, Bridgestone makes S0-3's...

Good in ALL weather...

Before Shane jumps in here... Yoko Parada's are for Minivans.

712's are alright for daily driving. Best compromise without breaking your account is RE730s.

 

Paradas suck
