They are excellant tyres in wet and dry conditions BUT not really a track tire.

They can be used on track but r888 is best suited for that. I would describe the prada as a road tyre with excellant grip and last pretty well considering.

what are r888 like for everday use and then little track use?

how long do they last approx with general wear (depends on some people obviously, but just in general)

also do they do them in 195/50/15 and how much do they cost?

saying there £107 each on there...

on ebay there £300 for the 4

i know the parada aint going to be better, but if m4dyeti said there a decent tyre and for about 140/160 for the set of 4 then cant grumble for that, plus i love the pattern design
