Tires FEDERAL or Barum
Am Barum Polaris 5 si mi-au placut, erau ieftine, acu 3 ani le-am luat cu 1000 toate 4 205/55/R16. Sunt moi, au sant pentru aderenta pe ploaie, dar dupa teste nu par ca exceleaza acolo, eu nu am simtit, iar pe zapada sunt excelente. Barum este sub-brand Continental si au fost facute in UE. Probabil sunt prea moi, si se consuma mai rapid, dar nu ma deranjat, oricum ma lovesc mai intai de vechime decat de cat de consumate sunt, si au tinut 3 sezoane sigur merg si al patrulea. Deasemenea se umplu de pietricele prin gauri. Not top performance, dar ok,
eu am mers pe Barum. Nu sunt premium, dar nici chinezarii, chiar fabricate in Cehia. Intru in a 3-a iarna cu ele si pana acum si-au facut treaba fara probleme.
Ja koristim Barum Polaris gume. Zadovoljan sam odnosom cene i kvaliteta.
I ended up opting for Federal 595RS-RR their cheaper and i like how they perform
I'm running 255/35R18 Federal 595RS-Pro and like them alot. Pretty affordable and nice level of grip.
Federals will be really noisy after a few thousand miles. Almost like your wheel bearings don’t exist anymore. Had rs-rr and 615k+. 615k+ is better. Both are way off pace but great budget tires. 615k+ is actually a pretty good tire for hpde.
The next set of Federal 595 RS-Pro lasted 30k and looked like OP tires.
Chinese snow tires are hit or miss. I had a set of federals for a short while that handled snow great for what they were.
In size 225/40 (r18), their thread width is comparable to other makers ~205. Well, does it matter? Yes, in the sense that when you install them onto an 8.5 wide rim, you'll notice that you're stretching the fit, and the sweating starts. Installing a tire alone with a basic tire machine is no longer possible.
My mame ma firemnych autach Barum Quadratis a za mokra je to cista samovrazda. Akonahle vojdes rychlejsie do zakruty a zatocis tak hned understeer
