Tyre reviews Federal Super Steel 595. Page 1 1707

I've been driving these tires for three years now, recommended by my friend who is very knowledgeable about cars. He's a professional, and I trust his opinion. The tires have been on my car for three years, and they still have 50% tread left. I'm not kidding - I'm impressed. Handling is fantastic. I've been searching for a tire that matches this level of handling, but I haven't found one. Yes, they are loud, but the handling is that good

I somehow made it to Losk in Kharkov from Belgorod on my bald tire, shuddering all the way, holding the wheel with almost my feet. For a long time, I was choosing between Yokohama, Continental, Michelin and Toyo, as I had already driven on them. I didn't pay much attention to Federal, though - it's still a Taiwanese product. But then, after two hours of deliberation, the guys convinced me to take it,

I'm currently running my second season on 215/45/R17.
All super braking, handling, traction, durability, and a pleasant price. Strong!!!
After a trip south, I had to replace the cast wheel, and visually inspecting it on the wheel machine, I could see the vibration, but with the tire all was okay. My last unfortunate experience was in suburban Dmitrov, where I got a pothole at night at a small speed, on the

I bought this tire in the spring of 2013 after a very long comparison of all possible brands in all price categories, numerous reviews, and comparisons etc. I ultimately settled on this set, and I would say take it! These tires really hold up their price, very strong sidewalls, and I accidentally drove into potholes and everything's fine, performing excellently on wet surfaces, not once got aquaplaning in the season, and I'm driving sensibly. As for the

I mounted the SS-595 tire on my car that was a year old.
I tried to replace it with other well-known brands, but the handling became worse.
I'd like to note that if the pressure is a bit higher than the recommended, the car handles better. The increased load is compensated by the slight increase in pressure.
It goes well on the road (including dirt roads). It occasionally skids on wet grass (on used tires).

They provide better traction on hard launches than my previous BF G Force, and by a mile. How all the others can give them a low rating, because they don't perform as well in the snow, they need to learn the difference between a performance tire and an all-season tire!

These are the worst tires I've ever bought. They must be made with terrible craftsmanship (I had four tires go bad in less than a year, and I've never had any issues with any other tire), and when I contacted Federal on at least two separate occasions I got no response.

Extremely impressed with the grip on packed snow. I got to test it several times in the snow early this year and was able to easily climb a few local hills that posed problems on other tires in the snow.

Nearly as well in cold temperatures, as the Toyo T1R, but with a very stiff sidewall that is good for cornering and provides a lot of feedback. I do not find them to be noisy and can not fault them at this price.

Decided for ages what to put on! Used to run on the factory Potenza, which is absolutely terrible! Ended up with Federals... completely by chance! Asked friends and it turned out many people are putting them on and still are! Decided to give it a try! Got two sets for two cars! And it turned out I didn't make a mistake! If the noise is normal, or you can make it normal, then there's no need to look for anything else! Fed
