Tires FEDERAL or SUMITOMO
I had a good experience with Sumitomo htr a/s p02.
Federal tires are 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.
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.
Federal 595 RS-R. It's a very well priced tyre.
I have slightly stretched Federal RS-RRs that still grip as much as the meaty Hankook V12s I used to run. Very affordable, but I've heard they're very poor in the rain.
Federal FZ-201 M tires. They were as fast as my used Hoosier R7s on the same course. Ended up about 1 second faster on a 1:15 lap vs the R7s. Fairly communicative towards the limits. On Auto Cross they were very sticky.
They are OK, but I don't prefer them. I've driven cars with them on and in the dry they are on par with the ADR-08s. I prefer the feedback and feel of the Hankook RS4's myself for the dry. That said, they are not good at all in the wet.
I've had Evo595 and they aren't that good. I ordered their RS-R and were sent RS-RR instead due to being sold out. These are so much better (quite loud if that's fine) have been on daily for 11k miles now with tread at okay level.
My old 175/50s didn't handle for ****
