Default So the guy at Discount Tire said............

Wile getting new tires at Discount Tires, I was talking to the install guy about the diffenence between Yoko Parada's and ES100s (what I got). He was saying that the ES100s were made for German? sports cars and such, and that the Parada's were made for the ""Import racer"" type of setup. So is this guy full of **** or what?

Also, would you agree with the statement, or my statement that the ES100s are better than the Paradas?

its not really important what he says about tires being for specific apps. what counts is are you getting a high quality tire for what you want the tire for. Often your own research pays off.

Oh and Toyo is probably marketing the Parada and that goofy Proxy(one with no water channel) to import show cars.

You mean Yokohama?

And to answer the original question, the general consensus is that Azenis&gt;ES100&gt;Parada.
