Tires NITTO or FEDERAL

I started on Federal 595 SS, As I progressed as a driver I changed those out for the Federal RS-RR, Both great tires for cheap and id recommend for a Grassroots style of drifting or open drift days.

[Federal 595 RS-R](https://www.onlinetires.com/products/vehicle/tires/federal/235%252F40-17+federal+595+rs-r+racing+90w+bsw.html) 235/40/17 under $100 per tire. I loved this tire, grip so nice.

I have Nitto Motivo tire on my Golf and love them. Good grip and wear.

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.

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.

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 actually had a few sets of the Gen 1 Exit 555 Nittos and felt they were an extremely underated tire. Awesome grip, even when cold, wore like iron, and handled wet conditions like it was child's play.

I second the Federal 595 RSR.

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.

Have nitto neogen on now and do not like them. Pirelli , bridgestone Potenzas, nitto invos and michelin pilot ss on my previous cars. I will stick with michelin on the next purchase.
