Tires FEDERAL or SUNNY
Just the loudest tires on planet earth. Boy do they grip through!
I just went from Federal 595 RS-RR (very loud but performed well on street and autocross) to their 595 RS-Pro (waaaaay quiter, I love these tires so far).
I also own a set of these, I can confirm. Fits my BMW very well as they used to make airplane engines, and these sound like a Messerschmidt prop plane.
Federal 595 RS RR
Wear earplugs. They're great.
I have Federal Himalaya Inverno K1 on my Highlander and they are boss. Never gotten stuck. Never had traction issues and I can go 120 in a blizzard
The next set of Federal 595 RS-Pro lasted 30k and looked like OP tires.
Chinese snow tires are hit or miss. I had a set of federals for a short while that handled snow great for what they were.
We ran them on our champ car endurance race car. They were ok for what they are. Beware they will get greasy after around 10-15 laps at full pace and grip goes immediately. Caused significant understeer at the limit when this happened.
When drove semi trucks the owner got these shit tires called “SUNNY”.
I got federals once because bills were coming all at once. Worst tires i ever had, so noisy, rough on the road and just didn’t feel great. Snow they were actually great surprisingly.
