Tires FEDERAL or RIKEN
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
Take a look into Federal Evoluzion ST-1. These are really good with a lot of positive reviews from owners of powerfull cars.
Pros: positive reviews
After my recent misfortune with A052’s at the track, I decided to go with a cheaper 200tw tire to see how they perform. I ran the Federal RS-Pro’s in 225/40/18 on my 2021 Mini Cooper JCW GP3. Handling was pretty impressive to me, to be honest.
Pros: impressive handling
Cons: acted a little squirrely
Vehicle:
MINI
I am running the Federal Himalaya Iceo. Ran them last winter and had no issues at all , daily driven and even used for work. Bought them from Town Fair Tire and I would recommend them to others.
Pros: no issues at all
Vehicle:
Subaru
I have a set of Federal 595RS-Pro's on my ATS-V. I have not had them on their long but I have been able to do one autocross on them and it improved my performance significantly. Also, I can confirm that they are not noisy on the road.
Pros: improved performance, not noisy
Cons: longevity unknown
I’ve been running Federals lately - RS-RR’s and RS-Pros - and both have been fantastic. Excellent grip, long wearing and cheap. Only gripe is the noise which is atrocious.
Pros: excellent grip, long wearing
Cons: atrocious noise
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
federal rs-rr are decent but they do get greasy towards the end of your sessions.
Pros: decent
Cons: get greasy
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.
Pros: not bad
Cons: 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.
Cons: tires are ****ty
