Kumho › Tires

Rating 4.0

Grip:

I ran the Kumho XS (250/50 15 on a 2006 Mazda 2) last summer and found them to be fairly comparable to the superceded Bridgestone RE01R, albeit much cheaper. I did 4-5 autocross sessions on them on top of 'spirited' drives in the local mountains every weekend. My fronts lasted just under 3000 miles to slick and the rears around double that, but I do have a fairly aggressive alignment.

Pros: fairly comparable, much cheaper

Cons: fronts lasted under 3000 miles

Vehicle: Mazda 2

Mileage: 4828 km

I love my T1-R's. a 195 on a 7", the sidewall is completely flat and right in line with the edge of the wheel. they stretch very well on an 8"

Pros: sidewall completely flat, stretch very well

Toyo T1R's on 8.5" rims. They stretched awesome. Ride nice and stiff as to be expected. So far they've been great.

Pros: stretched awesome, been great

Cons: ride nice and stiff

Noise:

I ran s.drives on my mk5 for a little while (ended up getting rid of them because some jackass at the tire place used the wrong wheels weights and the tires cupped badly) I was pretty happy with them, stuck well, not too loud (but had some noise for sure), and decently priced.

Pros: stuck well, decently priced

Cons: some noise

Vehicle: Volkswagen Golf

Ride comfort:

i ran 215/35/18's NSII's on an 8.5 last year and they stretched well... drove them all over last season and when i sold them they were at about 70-75% tread life left... they rode good, they were quiet, and good in the rain. for what they are i couldnt complain.

Pros: rode good, quiet, good in rain

FEDERAL › Tires

Grip:

Federal Tire Quality- Just like any tire it truly depends on the model/size. I have had 165/45's and they are junk for daily driving. I am currently rolling on 205/40/16 Federal 595's and I love them.

Pros: love them

Cons: junk for daily driving

Ride comfort:

i was going to get falken 512 in the 195 50 15s and save me $40 for the set, but 195 45 15 never been there, mine as well and try it out! rides comfortably as 195 50 15 doesn't feel any different from the 50 series!

Pros: rides comfortably

Cons: didnt really stretch

Ride comfort:

Compared to my Winterforce snows that are now year round tires, the handling is great! They do feel a little soft and the last ones I had were very slippery until the wear bars but around that point they got pretty sticky! Plus they were dirt cheap and my last ones lasted forever!

Pros: great handling, dirt cheap

Cons: feel a little soft, slippery
