Tires Pirelli or FEDERAL
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.
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.
I quickly switched to Pirelli P-Zero Nero all season tires and the different was night and day. Much better grip and stopping ability.....and I once took the car through about a foot of unplowed snow and didn't loose grip.
+1 on the Pirelli Elect. Went to 18s for my M3P and the tire is super comfortable, quiet, and naturally more efficient.
Replaced with Pirelli Scorpion AS Plus 3. So much better! Smoother and firmer
Needed to replace tires, got Pirelli P7 Plus 3, 225 / 45 R18. Anyone is looking for a quieter ride, I'm really pleased with these tires. Road noise significantly reduced from the Vredestein Quadtrack Pro that came on the car. Very happy with corning, road holding, rain.
The P Zero All-Season may be your best bet if you're set on all-seasons. They were fine when I had one of the previous scorpion AS iterations on my E53, seemed to be a good value.
Only other thing I'm seeing available is discount tire with a Nitto NT420V. I'd take the Pirelli over that.
My Mustang came from the factory with P-Zero summer tires and I too can confirm that they are pretty "brittle" and lacking in grip until you get a lot of heat into them.
My R6 came with Angel GTs but they suck, so I got supercorsas.
Pirelli P7 A/S - nice but wore quickly, even on a Honda Fit. That, and the Pirelli A/S runflats that came OEM on the Alfa are the worst tires I've used
