Tires FEDERAL or DEXTER
Ran the original tires for 6yrs just replaced them with some Federal Evoluzion ST-1 225/50ZR/17 high performance tires summer only all Im going to say is money well spent ????
Pros: money well spent
I have used the DAT1’s on two vehicles and the grip was phenomenal. The DAT1’s made that a joke.
Pros: phenomenal grip
Mileage: 32187 km
Very late to the party here. I just put some Dextero All Terrain’s on a 25 year old Chevy S10 that previously belonged to my now 95 year old grandfather. Maybe this isn’t saying much for an older truck that previously had tires that were god knows how old. But I have a much smoother ride now with possibly a little more road noise, but the noise isn’t anything overbearing and is only slightly louder.
Pros: much smoother ride
Cons: little more road noise
Vehicle:
Chevrolet
Just the loudest tires on planet earth. Boy do they grip through!
Pros: grip through
Cons: loudest tires
I just went from Federal 595 RS-RR (very loud but performed well on street and autocross) to their 595 RS-Pro (waaaaay quiter, I love these tires so far).
Pros: performed well, waaaaay quiter
Cons: very loud
Ive had a set of 245/65/17's on the rear of my Dakota for about 4 to 5 years now. They are decent for a budget tire but don't expect them to be on par with the likes of Goodyear, BF, etc.. In my experience, there down fall is mileage. Mine have worn even and ride nice, dry traction is very good & wet traction can be questionable.
Pros: dry traction is good
Cons: mileage is a downfall
Vehicle:
Dodge Dakota
Mileage: 20000 km
They seem to grip decent once warmed up, but they are a bit on the loud side.
Pros: grip decent
Cons: a bit loud
Federal tires to add sa mga choices
I got federals once because bills were coming all at once. Worst tires i ever had, so noisy, rough on the road and just didn’t feel great. Snow they were actually great surprisingly.
Pros: great in snow
Cons: noisy, rough ride
I have them on my 2016 Colorado and they get flat spots and vibrate just From sitting over night???? don’t buy these they balance like trash too, I’m a tire technician and I change tires all the time and I can say these are the worst tires I ever tried to balance
Cons: flat spots, vibrate, balance bad
Vehicle:
