vs
Tires FEDERAL or DEXTER
I have dextero Dat1. They got me through winter and mud without issues. I've had them over a year, and they don't really show much treadwear. The only downside is taking off in the rain from a stop with the wheels turned. The back of my truck is light, so the inside tire wants to spin. For a cheap tire, they do a good job. I would buy them again.
Pros: good in mud, good in snow
Cons: tire spin in rain
I put a set of the dextero at on my son's blazer. They did great. They are quiet. We put about 10,000 on them before we sold it. Only problem I saw was the front was wearing funny but that was the blazer not the tires.
Pros: quiet, did great
Cons: front wearing funny
Vehicle:
Chevrolet Blazer
Mileage: 10000 km
I bought these dextero all season tires 3 years ago. Every year I drive about 35k to 40k miles. I drive even during snow storm and these tires have a very good grip. So far, I don't have any complaints about this brand. It has a 50k mile warranty.
Pros: very good grip
I have these on my 4runner (265/70/17), I bought it with them on there so I'm not sure the exact mileage, but im happy with them. Work good on my red clay dirt road when it's rained.
Pros: Work good on dirt
Vehicle:
Toyota 4runner
Mileage: 20000 km
I have Federal Himalaya Inverno K1 on my Highlander and they are boss. Never gotten stuck. Never had traction issues and I can go 120 in a blizzard
Pros: never gotten stuck, no traction issues
Vehicle:
Toyota Highlander
The next set of Federal 595 RS-Pro lasted 30k and looked like OP tires.
Pros: lasted 30k
Cons: looked like OP tires
Mileage: 30000 km
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.
Pros: handled snow great
Cons: hit or miss
I have dexteros on an older suburban, they seem to wear ok, traction is less than the pirellis that came off (really down graded) so they are ok and have been a safe tire they are probably half the price of the pirellis that were removed.
Pros: wear ok, safe tire
Cons: less traction
Vehicle:
Chevrolet Suburban
Had horrible experiences with these tires on my Focus ST, chunked really quickly and weren't as fast as the RS-RR's
Cons: chunked really quickly
Vehicle:
Ford Focus
A friend bought them for his E92 M3 and ran one event with them before the shutdown. He said they're not very impressive at all, even his old and cycled RS3s had noticeably more grip available.
Cons: not very impressive
Vehicle:
BMW
