vs
Tires Uniroyal or FEDERAL
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
I need new tires for my taurus 255/45/19. They're all way too expensive except for the uniroyal tiger paws at $135 per tire. I'll be getting them.
Pros: affordable price
Cons: expensive tires
Vehicle:
Ford Taurus
I have 177000 miles on mine, I just went with the value tire. Uniroyal Tiger paws. great so far.
Pros: great so far
Mileage: 284852 km
Falken, Toyo, Uniroyal etc are all good midrange. Don't skimp.
Pros: good midrange
Cons: Don't skimp
Vehicle:
BMW M4
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 have been running the 14" tiger paws for over 5 years on my Mk3 2.0 Jetta and have loved them.
Pros: loved them
Vehicle:
Volkswagen Jetta
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.
Pros: OK in the dry
Cons: not good in wet
Vehicle:
BMW
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.
Pros: much better
Cons: quite loud
Vehicle:
Kia Sportage
Mileage: 11000 km
I was thinking about running 185/60-13's for a while. All that I could find where Federal 595 and Achilles 122 which are both ****ty tires.
Cons: tires are ****ty
I have these tires on my daily from the previous owner, and though they last quite well they are absolutely awful in every other respect. Multiple times Iv lost traction under normal braking, have a difficult time in light snow, and it has the lateral grip of a 75 year old grandmother.
Pros: last quite well
Cons: awful in every respect
