Tires FEDERAL or Sava
I purchased Federal Xplora RT tires and they are the best tires I've ever had. I got them three years ago and I have over 40k on them and they are barely warn. They are literally 100k tires. Wet traction and hydroplane resistance are excellent. I did a little bit of snow and they did well there too.
Pros: excellent wet traction, long lasting
Mileage: 64373 km
I run Federal RSRR on the front of my drift car and Id say its TOO much grip in comparison to the rear 'whatever-I-Can-get" used tires.
Pros: too much grip
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.
Pros: budget friendly
Cons: only for larger sizes
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.
Pros: good rolling, speed retention
Cons: no cons

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
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
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
