Tires FEDERAL or GENERAL TIRE

FEDERAL Tires

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

GENERAL TIRE Tires

Just had some General Altimax Arctic mounted on the stock 15's last week. Paid $310 mounted after rebate at Sears. I used the same tires for three winters on my last car, and was really happy with the way they performed.

Pros: happy with performance

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

GENERAL TIRE Tires

The GENERAL ALTIMAX ARCTIC are pretty good for the Canadian winter. They have some very good ratings on Tire Rack. I have 17 inches for winter.

Pros: good for winter, good ratings

Yep, have these on my BiTurbos. Good size for a 14x6. I'll use them again when I find a set of 7 or 7.5\" wheels. Downside is they are just regular all-seasons. Not terribly fun but I'm not driving crazy at this height anyways. It'd be nice if there were some 14\" Summer options in a 195/50 at least.

Pros: good size
Cons: regular all-seasons, not fun
