Yokohama AVS ES100 of Parada Spec-2 for my 17's on my integra?

 

My friend has AVS ES100's and he seems to love them alot. I don't know what the specs are for the Parada's, but from what I hear about ES100's, they seem to be kick-*** tires if you ask me...You might want to try checking and comparing the two tires and see which one is better.. http://www.tirerack.com has specs and stuff like that...Good Luck with your decision..I hope you make the right one.

 

Parada is a show tire, Yokohama developed the tread to look "hip," while making the tires last a long time. Take that into consideration when you're choosing. I'd go AVS.

 

just installed my new Yokohama AVS ES100 and I LOVE THEM! Thank ht

 

AVS ES100 here... they are wonderful. Mine are 205/45/16. They grip like animals. I have an auto-x and a driving school for auto-x a week from now. Email if you want to know how they do.

 

bringing the thread back... so the avs es100s would be the best on a superchagered (b16a) crx compared to the parada. i think i can get the 205/45/16 in avs es100 or the parada in 205/40/16... thanks

 

Yea the tire selection in 16"is very minimal and I have heard nothing bad about the ES100's though.

 

es100's

 

I have em on my c8's

 

es100 i just ordered them today..from discounttiredirect.com $63 per tire free ground shipping

 

How'd you get them so cheap? They were $92 for me thru discount tire....well now they are cheaper at $82/tire online....how;d you get it quoted at $63???

 

thats what the online price is for 195/50/15's it said 63 bucks...i couldnt refuse haha

 

so the es100s then... will they hook up better then the parada spec2. i have a crx b16 with supercharger so traction will kinda be a problem.

 

how is the tread wear on the avs es100's? i hear they are comparable to the kumho 712's, but better in every aspect (dry and wet grip), but what about tread wear? do they still have good treadwear like the 712's, or do they suck at wear like azenis?

 

If you beat on em all the time theyre not gonna respond well. I dont race much and mine are fine, then again they are a Z rated compound so, if you dont beat on em they'll last. As for dry/wet handling,

 

i got my es100 installed 2 weeks ago, I LOVE THEM! Excellent with the noise and comfort ride. Handling is great also, but my previous tires for nittos 450, any other tires are better than those....

 

I have paradas for sale on ebay!

i had to decide between the two myself... and i picked the parada's... they're a great tire..

but i'm sure the AVS are as well..

so you really can't go wrong between the two.. just pick randomly

 

Ya gotta love those ebay deals

 

AVS ES100 or Falken Azenis?

Ben

 

Do you autocross or road race? Would only getting 8K on a set of tires hurt your pocket book?
Azenis are the best street tire on the market in term of handling, period. However, they come in limited sizes, wear very quickly, and aren't the best rain tire. For everyday driving and mild autocrossing and road racing, I'd go with the AVS 100 just because they will wear better. If you are serious autocrosser or road racer and don't need that extra mileage on the tires, go azenis. I don't have either but I have friends that have both.

 

so azenis would get better grip then the avs es100's. wheel spin is bad what sould i get?

 

This is BS!! I have had PARADAS for over a year now and they are great!!! They handle like the car is on rails!!!

 

the 195/50/15 avs can be had for 53each at tirerack. i just ordered a set.

 

Nope. Yokohama themselves said it. It's even marketed as a show tire in JDM land. Looks good and lasts long--look at the treadwear rating. Sure it might feel better than stock tires, there's not much that isn't.
