Tires DUNLOP or FEDERAL

FEDERAL Tires

I started on Federal 595 SS, As I progressed as a driver I changed those out for the Federal RS-RR, Both great tires for cheap and id recommend for a Grassroots style of drifting or open drift days.

Pros: great tires for cheap

So I have the 595 evos on my Genesis Coupe. Tire wear is pretty good I've had them for 3 seasons now and I'll likely get a 4th out of them. They have a veeerrry stiff sidewall and are quite difficult to mount/dismount. They're very responsive and turn in is very good. They grip and grip and grip in the dry, but in the wet they're not very confidence inspiring. They also run slightly bigger than the size listed.

Pros: good tire wear, very responsive
Cons: stiff sidewall, difficult mount
Vehicle: Hyundai Genesis Coupe

I run 595 evo's in the rear on my M3, they were cheap as fuck ($75/tire from amazon) and seem to have the longest tread life of any tire I've ran. Typically I get 5k-7k miles on my rear tires and I've had these for 7k now and there's a lot of life left. They wear super evenly too, grip in the dry is perfect, wet is fine unless you get on it, then of course you spin a little.

Pros: longest tread life, even wear
Cons: spin a little when wet
Vehicle: BMW
Mileage: 11265 km

I use them on my 240sx, if you are just autocrossing for fun and to gain experience they are great, but not competitive compared to other tires legal in street/stock classes.

Pros: great for fun, gain experience
Cons: not competitive
Vehicle: Nissan

2 years ago, I got Dunlop Winter Sport 4Ds (205/55/16) for 443 shipped. 4Ds aren't the best winter tire out, but really I didn't need blizzaks.

Pros: good price
Cons: not the best

Have Dunlop Sig HP 235/45r17 on my Volt. Not a bad tire. Grip is much higher than the stockers of course. Weird thing though, around 2 different off ramps at a similar speed to the stock tires, the ESP light comes on. I know it is getting light on the back inside tire, but I am coasting, not braking. Though, not sure how the regen works with the rear tires. So maybe the car is braking the back tires at the same amount as the regen is braking the front axle? Either way, never got an ESP light on any cornering with stock tires, and get it occasionally with the new ones. Slight slight bit of howl, but coming from the crap hypermile OE tires, everything is going to be louder. For the price I paid, I will not complain a bit.

Pros: grip is much higher
Cons: ESP light comes on, slight howl

Forget the RS-RR's if you don't want your ears ringing for days after even a short road trip. I've been in a '17 mustang (gt) fitted with them; and I've never heard so much road noise on the street.

Cons: excessive road noise

These are not great street tires for DD use. You compare them to PS4s but they are not the same class. These are faster wearing, much louder, worse in cool temperatures (think in the 60°s), worse in the rain, much more prone to tramlining, less comfortable, and you'll never be able to use them to their potential on public roads.

Cons: faster wearing, much louder
