Review on Yokohama Parada Spec-X 225/65 R17 102H summer by Czesawa Rosiska ᠌

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Not everything is so bad, but there are disadvantages.

During the first months of use, I was also delighted, until I encountered such wear. With active use on almost all types of roads, you can safely repeat one of the comments below: tires for one - a maximum of two seasons. Some pros: The directional tread pattern - at the output received sane stability: a shallow rut is not felt, but only if it is not very rolled. Excellent handling and cross-country ability - on a serpentine with a loaded car weight of about 2 tons. you can, with a strong desire, enter turns at 90 km / h without fear to go into the oncoming lane, rowing through rocky terrain and light off-road with a bang. Noise? The concept is subjective - on a road made of crushed stone asphalt, in the absence of sound insulation, it is difficult to get rid of the rumble on almost any rubber, for me it is insignificant. Previously, there was a full-time Bridgestone Dueler 697, the rumble from it was much stronger. Valid for the first 1.5 years of active operation at elevated temperatures (from 30 degrees and above). I did not have a common problem with pulling out pieces of the tread throughout the entire service life. The sidewalls are strong enough, repeatedly rubbed against the curb and stones in the mountains - and not a single hernia. Cons: The indicated rubber resource is 45,000 km, and the figure is clearly not taken from the bulldozer. After running 40,000 for two years (from mid-April to the end of October annually), the residual tread depth from the original 7.2 mm on the front-wheel drive crossover was . 1.9 on the front cylinders and 2.8 on the rear! The country of production is Japan. After a year and a half of this active operation, a tendency to drift appeared, it became more difficult to enter the same turns on a serpentine even on an empty car. Also, during the operation, the speed of aquaplaning was found out - the car noticeably pops up at 85 km / h.
