The Federals have been good for me the last couple of years for a budget tire, but they're really only a budget friendly tire for larger sizes.
I have EB AWD and haven't changed out factory tires. In southern MN live off 3 miles of dirt roads. Winter has kinda nailed us this year. Maverick handled it all like a champ.
I have the hybrid lariat and I got a set of snow tires on steelies. I have driven through slushy freezing rain/snow this winter and it didn't slide around at all.
I’ve lived in northern Colorado my whole driving life and I think the mav handles great. I still have the stock tires on and while I do drive very carefully when it’s snowy I have had almost no slipping/sliding
Federal command 2.4s have been my favorite so far. Smooth center tread for good rolling and speed retention, but still have some tread on the side for banking and grind protection. Rubber compound they use is also getting softer with time/riding so they feel better the more worn in they get.
205 65 15 Federal Federallys
They have great traction in the dirt and never de-bead
Full tread they were good in the rain but definitely left something to be desired once they got below half tread.
federal rs-rr are decent but they do get greasy towards the end of your sessions.
Note to self, don’t cheap out on tires. (Federal SS 595). These aren’t bad bad but for autocross they need to be better.
I was thinking about running 185/60-13's for a while. All that I could find where Federal 595 and Achilles 122 which are both ****ty tires.
