I drove about 8k miles on a set of RS-Rs. They ride fairly stiff and produce a hum. Wet traction actually not bad at all. Dry performance was obviously exemplary.
Pros: dry performance exemplary
Cons: ride fairly stiff
Mileage: 12875 km
I currently have the Federals for autocross and the grip is fantastic...
Pros: fantastic grip
Cons: huge wheel gap
Upgraded the tires late last year to Federal 595 RSR, they are $300 INSTALLED at a local shop, which is crazy cheap IMO. The car grips so well.
Pros: car grips well, crazy cheap
Vehicle:
Mazda
Mileage: 10000 km
running Federal 595 RS-RRs on my RX-7 and they're not bad, certainly not as sticky as the Toyo R888s I had on previously, but I can't reallly complain otherwise.
Pros: not bad
Cons: not as sticky
Vehicle:
Mazda
I just run cheap studded federal himalaya ws2 (235/45/16) on 9x18 wheels. But im dealing with ice not snow.
Pros: dealing with ice
Cons: cheap studded
Vehicle:
Volkswagen
Federals are good but if you are daily driving you will hate how much noise those bastards make, really really fast.
Pros: good performance
Cons: very noisy
Federals are awesome! I generally rock the 595's. The lateral grip is off the chain, and last forever, things are made with unicorn farts. Every build, every car, gets those tires when I do a wheel package. And I've never had anything close to any kind of problem with them.
Pros: awesome, off the chain lateral grip, last forever
I was thinking about running 185/60-13's for a while. All that I could find where Federal 595 and Achilles 122 which are both ****ty tires.
Cons: tires are ****ty
I started on Federal 595 SS, As I progressed as a driver I changed those out for the Federal RS-RR, Both great tires for cheap and id recommend for a Grassroots style of drifting or open drift days.
Pros: great tires for cheap
