just looking for more-than-amateur opinions.

Yokohama Parada Spec-2 215/40/18 Tread:300 Traction:AA Temp:A

vs.

Nitto NT555 Extreme 215/35/18 Tread:300 Traction:A Temp:A

both are z-rated.

When i had my First SVT I had AVS sports and they where flippin amazing. 5 Open Tracks and a Season of Auto-X. the parada are a obvious step down but i think that they would do the job.

Nitto's I have nt450's on my konig's and I am extremly less than impressed

I remember when Nitto was a good tire. It hasn't been recently though.

Yokohama Paradas sure can take some abuse. Had them on my former Contour. Despite the treadwear rating they didn't see to wear too quickly, chunk up during spirited driving, etc. Weren't too bad in the rain either. Great set of tires...wish they had my Evo's tire size.
