Review on Yokohama Parada Spec-X 235/55 R19 101V summer by Kiril Tankard ᠌

Revainrating 4 out of 5

I am satisfied with everything, both price and quality, I advise you to buy.

After reading a number of evaluations on AliExpress and other Western websites, I decided which tires to buy for the summer. People were drawn to the Parada Spec-X due to its impressive performance and the excellent reviews it received. In point of fact, after being treated with the Michelin Latitude Alpin LA2 winter Velcro, it has improved its ability to adhere to the pavement and has become more elastic. In addition, it is better able to absorb bumps, such as joints on overpasses. Enjoyable to drive, you bet. However, it generates a sound that is almost identical to that of a winter Michelin. It is a hum or howl, the pitch of which varies according on the speed. While it may not have as broad of a range of "yells" as the Michelin, it does offer a pleasing growl that pairs nicely with a diesel engine. Believe me, the Range Rover Evoque has quite decent noise isolation, but I can hear this rubber perfectly; so, if you're searching for something that is completely silent, you should go elsewhere. This is most likely a punishment for having a versatile skill set and having M+S. It occurs to me that winter Velcro might actually be a marketable product, so I'd like to put it to the test in the cold.

Pros
  • - Price - Driving Comfort - Appearance (Brutalnenko) - The off-season, however it is unclear if this is a benefit or a disadvantage at this point.
Cons
  • - A rumbling hum of noise (who writes "quiet" when the music is playing at a very loud volume)
