Default tyre choice

basically i have got the option of yokohama parada's,toyo t1s's or toyo t1r's.
it will be mainly for road use with maybe 8 drag racing sessions and one track day a year.the tyres i have on at the moment are avon zz3's,and basically there is no traction till third gear,which isn't much use up the strip.
so,your opinions please.

the t1-r is the replacement for the t1-s.i use the t1-r and it gives great grip in the dry but a bit scary in the wet.they seem to wear out quite quick as well.

How many threads do you need about your tyres Go & buy the Parada's i swear by them, for a road tyre they are good on a trackday.
