Tires FEDERAL or Triangle

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.

I second the Federal 595 RSR.

Here are some of the 165/40-16s Federal 595 EVO I just picked up. The wheels are RH Classics 16x7.5 these tires (like most Federals) run a full size wide, so they run like a 175. They also stretch more round, less "quarter pipe" like a Nankang. I'm not a huge fan of the flames, but they ride nice and at least they'll wear off the tread. haha

The federal rsr 595s I'm using on the rse05s hold up much better at the track.

Outperformed my 02 Cooper S at an AutoX event! I'm also talking about in the rain vs other tires I've had. Blows Michelins, Toyos, Pirellis, Goodyears out of the water no pun intended lol. They also seem to handle side/cornering load well. My continentals were cooked after a few track days and spirited drives while these seem fine. No chunking or odd wear patterns on the edge of the tread/sidewall. Any of those who have tracked will know what I'm referring to.

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

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.

i have them on 15x8 on a 165/45 and they are by no means autocrossing tires. What they do have, is the forgiveness in treadwear so they tend to last much better than the toyo proxes that were phased out over a year ago. Now those handled great, but had a terrrible tire tread life.

these tires ride like ****. obviously. and your roads are no worse than anyone elses.
