I just bought some myself for my rear im a first time user of Federal so my opinion should be valid ig you can say but I’ve had them for about a week now 265/35/r18 federal 595 rs-rr to be exact. Besides the fact that they look cool my mpg surprisingly went up, they’re superrr sticky and handle curves/corners just be careful the first couple of miles considering that they’re new tires you’ll probably lose traction from the fresh rubber but no big deal. The only downside (for some people) is that they are noisy personally it doesn’t bother me bc I have no mufflers and I listen to loud music but if you’re someone that is picky or sensitive to noise I’d suggest another tire other than that I’d rate the tires 9/10
Pros: super sticky, handle corners
Cons: tires are noisy
These tires were just taken off a two-week old 2022 Volkswagen GTI. The tires were driven lightly during break-in period before dismounting with only 315 miles on them. They are in as-new condition.
Pros: as-new condition
Vehicle:
Volkswagen
Mileage: 507 km
Overall the I found the GTI was very impressive at a track that doesn't cater to FWD and with terrible 560tw all seasons.
Pros: very impressive
Cons: terrible all seasons
Vehicle:
Volkswagen
I recently bought a new to me truck with 285/60/20 federal couragia fx tires. So far they ride really well in dry or wet weather, warm or cold.
Pros: ride really well
Cons: low tread wear rating
Vehicle:
Dodge RAM
I did get new wheels and tires and couldn\u2019t be happier. The 205/55s are a better choice for general use, being much quieter overall and considerably less harsh on city streets, while keeping very solid highway performance.
Pros: quieter, less harsh
Vehicle:
Volkswagen Golf
Probably one of the loudest tires I’ve had.. Federal 595 RSRR
Cons: loudest tires
Full tread they were good in the rain but definitely left something to be desired once they got below half tread.
Pros: good in the rain
Cons: desired below half tread
I think the single largest shortcoming is the tires. After that, probably the suspension. After I owned it for about 6 months I noticed that driving over potholes and speedbumps was not nearly as good as I was expecting out of a lifted car.
Cons: driving over potholes not good
Vehicle:
Volkswagen
These are not great street tires for DD use. You compare them to PS4s but they are not the same class. These are faster wearing, much louder, worse in cool temperatures (think in the 60°s), worse in the rain, much more prone to tramlining, less comfortable, and you'll never be able to use them to their potential on public roads.
Cons: faster wearing, much louder
