vs
Tires FEDERAL or SUNNY
Federal 595's are to my knowledge, the best bang for your buck.
Pros: best bang for buck
Vehicle:
Mazda
I have used the 595-RSR tires for 8 years now, several sets. yes they are noisy, get worse with miles but I noticed the newest ones were even louder! These tires are the ultimate in grip/handling, one of the few that can put FWD power to the ground. Make my cars handle like its on rails and they don't squeal when pushing to the limit around corners. They are so sticky they pick up all the rocks/debris and throw it up in your wheel wells/rockers. I think they are easily one the best handling tire out there. Very stiff sidewalls, but extremely loud (like louder than winter tires). If you can handle the sound and dont expect a lot of miles out of them, go for it.
Pros: ultimate grip/handling, stiff sidewalls
Cons: very loud, picks up debris
I've gone through at least 5 sets of 651's over the past 4-5 years of daily driving and autox (07 scion tC & now a 17 BRZ). as a budget tire, really can't complain for learning without breaking the bank.
Pros: budget tire, good learning
I really like the federal command tires, they were an amazing price (around 60$ for 2). They also have a very pronounced grind protection lip on the side wall. On a super hot supper day they have amazing grip and wonderful feedback.
My only complaint is because they are a slick tire, you get amazing rolling, but the second there is a dusting of sand on a hard surface you can slip out pretty easy.
Pros: amazing grip, wonderful feedback
Cons: slips on sand
Eu am cauciucuri sunny, un set de vara și un set de iarna! Am fost multumit de cele de iarna si automat nu am mai cumparat de vara decat de la marca asta chinezească!Sunt mulțumit!
Pros: Preț rezonabil, sunt mulțumit
Federal tires are cheap and good. I use Michelin PS4 but on wet paint they're almost useless.
Pros: cheap and good
Cons: useless on wet paint
RS-RR's are good for wear also but way longer to overheat when pushed. They squeal and moan like crazy though and finding the limit of grip is very hard.
Pros: good wear, longer overheat
Cons: squeal and moan, hard grip
Federal 595RS-PRO 275 width - Lower grip levels than RE71 or similar, but they wear like rocks. I am on heat cycle 15 and they have no significant wear. Time deltas for me on a short, technical track are ~1.5-2 secs slower than my other tires, however.
Pros: wear like rocks
Cons: lower grip levels
Vehicle:
BMW
I’ve ran them for autox for fun when I had bmw Z4. They aren’t that good. Lol. Decent daily tires though.
Pros: decent daily tires
Cons: aren’t that good
Vehicle:
BMW Z4
I have a set of Federal RSRR. They only have about 3,000 miles on them. I took them to a track day and there was no feedback on when the tire would lose traction, the car would go from full grip to zero in a snap.
Cons: no traction feedback, sudden loss
Mileage: 4800 km
