Tires Kumho or FEDERAL

I have used the 595-RSR tires for 8 years now, several sets. yes they are noisy, get worse with miles but I noticed the newest ones were even louder! These tires are the ultimate in grip/handling, one of the few that can put FWD power to the ground. Make my cars handle like its on rails and they don't squeal when pushing to the limit around corners. They are so sticky they pick up all the rocks/debris and throw it up in your wheel wells/rockers. I think they are easily one the best handling tire out there. Very stiff sidewalls, but extremely loud (like louder than winter tires). If you can handle the sound and dont expect a lot of miles out of them, go for it.

I had these on my Autocross car last season. I changed to the Kumho V730 early this season and it’s a game changer.

Kumhos rock. I’ve always been pleased with mine.

Its 100% the tires. Im usually super picky on tires but these Kumhos are nice and made specifically for EVs.

Had a 2023 AWD pro S loaner for a few days while my 22 same was in the shop. Wow, the ride on the Kumho tires felt smooth. And was there improvement on the suspension between model years? Or maybe that was the tire too.

I like the Kumho Majesty 9 tires I put on it. Drives like luxury.

The only tire I've had that didn't feather in the rear was the Kumho ECSTA Platinum LX. But, it's easy to brake the tires loose on APR Stage 1.

Probably one of the loudest tires I’ve had.. Federal 595 RSRR

Falken RT660 suck when temps are below 60F as even in the dry the rears won't get enough heat in them to work properly until around runs 5-6. Kumho V730 do better in cool dry weather than the RT660, but they're not a rain tire (at least not here in the Pacific NW).

Kumho tires don’t last, the rubber cracks out.
