Tires FEDERAL or GT Radial

For myself and my family, I highly recommend GT Radial having used them in Indonesia when we lived there (it's originally an Indonesian brand).

I have the Adventuro ATX's on my Frontier and have 0 complaints. 17,000 miles on them and still showing tons of tread left, no vibes and no noise. They were beasts in the snow and still ride perfectly smoothly. I would 100% buy them again.

Ran the original tires for 6yrs just replaced them with some Federal Evoluzion ST-1 225/50ZR/17 high performance tires summer only all Im going to say is money well spent ????

On the Forester I put some Radar branded tires on. They were the cheapest Mud + Snow three peak rated tires on Tire Rack. Car drives fine but they are LOUD. I thought a wheel bearing was going out as soon as I put them on (and I'll probably just proactively change the wheel bearings anyways). On the Econoline I got some Ironman tires. Honestly they seem fine, but the van doesn't have the smoothest ride and has a lot of stuff inside bouncing around so I can't judge their ride/comfort. One of the tires had a pretty good hop on the balance machine, though. On the Toyota Pickup I have some GT Radials I put on about 5 years ago and they've been great, no issues in the time I've had them (about 15k miles so far).

GT radial UHP AS tires are like $70 a tire, and more than good enough for the street. I even took them on track for a session, and while they are a bit floppy, they're also way better in the rain and more comfortable than most summer tires.

GT Radial tires are manufactured by Giti Tire, a Singapore-based tire manufacturer with nine facilities worldwide. Ironman tires are a budget sub-brand of Hercules Tires, which is in partnership with Cooper Tires, and manufactures its tires in different countries.

Realistically they are probably close to equivalent to each other, but both are low end budget tire brands. They seem to fair well on dry pavement and do marginally well in wet conditions, but are noticeably lacking in snow and winter conditions.

Tried both but I’ll go with GT Radial

The next set of Federal 595 RS-Pro lasted 30k and looked like OP tires.

I got federals once because bills were coming all at once. Worst tires i ever had, so noisy, rough on the road and just didn’t feel great. Snow they were actually great surprisingly.

I know GT radial tires are on the cheaper side. My GF got them last summer, in may. I checked them today and they are down to about 4/32mm. She basically drove 8 months with them, or 25k km, almost exclusively highway. Is that expected? I'm used to tires going for 50k km.
