Right i've had R888's, Rs2's, Parada spec 2's & Conti 3's since Feb.
Parada Spec 2's good in the dry (but too soft for track) lethal in the wet.
Conti 3's good all round tyre(but again too soft for track better than yokos).
R888's awesome, not suited to uk winters.
Rs2's better all round tyre for everyday, better than anything other than 888's in dry. But you don't get the drone with these that 888's give.
Got 8J speedlines with 888's & 7.5J speedlines with Rs2's best of both worlds
Will put up some vid when edited of Donington last fri you will not believe how wet it got at times & 888's were fine
