As above basically, T1Rs, Paradas, RS2s are at the end of the day BUDGET tyres...
Until I went to a PREMIUM tyre I wouldn't believe it either... But the difference is unreal, I'd have spent just as much in T1Rs or Paradas for them to wear out twice as quick have shitty turn in, be crap in the wet.... Whereas a set of PS2s or high-mid ranges like my SP Sport Fastresponses would have lasted in £/mile the same as the lobudgets, but done everything else better in the meantime for essentially no extra cost...
For mid range tyres I'd say Yoko S.Drives are a good buy as are SP Sport Fastresponses, they've got one of the best sidewalls of any tyre I've ever owned, they're bloody amazing IMO!! For top end I'm personally not a fan of Eagles, but I do like PE2s, PS3s and Conti Sportcontacts...
