Default yokohama paradas - any good in the wet?

As above really. Getting my wheels refurbed and want some new rubber on them. Been running Avon ZZ3's for a while and they aren't the greatest (tend to let go if pushed even a little, and especially in the wet!).

Any recommendations for a hard driven, all weather FRS?

Cheers

I have asked on the RS owners site and it seems the two most popular tyres are the Yokohama Parada spec 2's and the Toyo T1 R's. I have just ordered 2 Toyo T1 R's as after compairing them on Mytyres.co.uk the Toyo's come out better. I have heard people saying that the Parada's are poor in the wet but the are meant to be awsome in the dry.

Up to you mate, I'm gunna try the Toyos this time and if no good Yoks next time.
