Tires FEDERAL or Cooper

I had 155/55r14s or something like that on snowflakes and they ran great/handled great. I had to run spacers for the fitment to look right. and on my cups I have 165/45r15s. By far the best performing stretched tires I've ridden. And they can hit a pothole at 70mph and protect the wheel from bending.

Federal 595 are great for the price. $80 for some super sticky stuff

I am a fan of cooper tires in general. Typically, they wear well, they are quiet and hold the weather well too!

Cooper RS3-S I picked them up last spring; great grip in dry and wet, low noise, 300 wear rating (decent for a summer only tire) and great price point.

Try, Federal RS-R. It should be equal to XS in performance but cheaper. I have the 195/50/15 on Miata and I think it is better than my previous Falken Azenis.

The wheels look absolutely great and they drive great, the driving feel with such a light wheel is amazing. One of the wheels wasn’t perfectly round and had a small hop to it... I put 1500 miles on them and the vibration never bugged me, even on a road trip to Chicago.

Got my tires yesterday and went and got them mounted this morning. Liking them so far, hardly any stretch. I'll have my coilovers in a couple weeks then to see how they are on the car. 165/55/14 Federals on 14x6 wheels

They are worn evenly and look & ride great. I think the Cooper Touring tires are a nice compliment and the ride is far nicer than the Bridgestone Potenza RE-11s that were on the \"borrowed\" wheels.

One of the front tires is leaking a small amount of air (5-10psi/ month) out of the valve stem and one rear lip is bent but still holds air.

Yes the handling is worse! Yes I feel my ride is compromised when taking corners, braking, and overall feel for the road is reduced.
