Tires Firestone or FEDERAL

I am running the Federal Himalaya Iceo. Ran them last winter and had no issues at all , daily driven and even used for work. Bought them from Town Fair Tire and I would recommend them to others.

I also live in Vegas, just had Firestone Firehawk Indy 500’s put on a month ago and have 0 complaints

Firestone Indy 500 Firehawk

Very reasonable price for the quality, and they last a while. I had Toyo Proxes T1 Sports before and they were great, but very expensive, and they did not last at all. I prefer the Firestones for daily driving.

The Firestone Firehawk Indy 500 are an Ultra High Performance Summer tires and have been a great for me. They were super popular when I last bought tires at least. Maybe there is some new hot affordable performance tire? Definitely would recommend checking them out. They handle a stage 2 tuned mk7 gti pretty well for what it’s worth.

Im running the firestones on my s4. Definitely would recommend those.

I have a set of Federal 595RS-Pro's on my ATS-V. I have not had them on their long but I have been able to do one autocross on them and it improved my performance significantly. Also, I can confirm that they are not noisy on the road.

I’ve been running Federals lately - RS-RR’s and RS-Pros - and both have been fantastic. Excellent grip, long wearing and cheap. Only gripe is the noise which is atrocious.

If it's any consolation, after what I've experienced with the RR I would not hesitate to put a set of PROs on a daily driver for the summer. They have incredible grip for the price, I and a couple of friends have been able to remain competitive on the RR. I would assume from the RR they will have good cold grip, making them good in the wet as long as you don't go through puddles.

I've had Evo595 and they aren't that good. I ordered their RS-R and were sent RS-RR instead due to being sold out. These are so much better (quite loud if that's fine) have been on daily for 11k miles now with tread at okay level.

I worked for Firestone installing tires for a while, and those tires are pretty bad. I guess all budget tires are probably the same, but I wouldn't want those on my car. The number of recalls that went out on those was crazy, almost weekly. They also wear pretty damn fast, and don't grip for shit.
