vs
Tires FEDERAL or NANKANG
If it's any consolation, after what I've experienced with the RR I would not hesitate to put a set of PROs on a daily driver for the summer. They have incredible grip for the price, I and a couple of friends have been able to remain competitive on the RR. I would assume from the RR they will have good cold grip, making them good in the wet as long as you don't go through puddles.
Pros: incredible grip, good cold grip
I’ve been a Federal fan for a few years now. Downfall of the RR’s was the road noise, the Pro has fixed that. Can’t wait to hit the track this year with them.
Pros: fixed road noise
Cons: road noise
I like them for the price. Grip is great and noise is definitely less than the RS-RRs. They are certainly not RE71s or Rivals but I can buy two sets for the price of top tier. They also run wide as hell. They also wear like iron. Same as the RS-RR.
Pros: great grip, wear like iron
Cons: not top tier
Vehicle:
Ford Fiesta
Federal tires are fantastic on a budget.
Pros: fantastic on a budget
Over all, very happy with the RS-RRs last year and will be buying another set when these run their course.
Pros: very happy
Vehicle:
Ford Mustang
RS-RR will have more grip without a doubt the price is quite good for what you get however keep in mind these tires are loud as shit like really really loud.
Pros: more grip, good price
Cons: loud as shit
nankang is not bad just probably a bit of road noise
Pros: not bad
Cons: road noise
Here is my setup i was running 195/40/16 federal on my 8J's but was rubbing Too.... so i put them on my 9J's and bought NSII 165/40/16 Here is what they look like
Cons: rubbing too much
I had Nankangs once. The only negative reviews I read just pointed out the excessive road noise. They drove me absolutely ****ing insane the entire time I had them on my car.
Cons: excessive road noise
My nankangs stretched pretty well. However, They suck in the rain. Like, scary bad. But you can do crazy burn-outs, because they don't grip for sh!t. You get what you pay for, in this case unfortunately.
Pros: stretched pretty well
Cons: suck in the rain
