People use to rave about them on the rsoc so i bought a set, Took them back off before i found a ditch :roll:

Don't know why anybody would want to put budget tyres on thier car,

I've got Paradas on my 1 and really like them - full of grip in the dry and decent enough in the wet although I dare say you could get better for wet driving. My car only comes out on nice days though so I'm not too fussed about the latter :lol:

I've sold the tyres and wheels from my car as it doesn't come out often enough to warrant keeping hold of them.
