Completed a full season (autumn). 207 RC 215/45/17
In principle, everything is fine, but... up to 130 km/h. Further, it wobbles when changing lanes, to the point where you often remember your mother. Apparently, it has problems with the sidewalls. Tire for quiet driving. It performs well on a wet road, and the brakes are also fine. In terms of noise - it

This tire is extremely grippy, as if it's glued to the asphalt (no wonder it's a drift tire). Handling is superb on both wet and dry roads. I've already worn out two sets in a single ride.
Excellent durability since it's a directional tire - it does make some noise. However, if your car has good sound insulation, you won't notice it. I wouldn't recommend this tire to those who enjoy driving on the sidewalk, though - it's a high-performance

All in, reasonably good tires. In warm summer weather, the grip is good when the tire is warmed up, but not as good as the Maxxis MA v1, for example, for the same price. There's an idea from the federal authorities mainly to look good. As soon as the situation gets wet during normal driving, it's very easy to get wheel lockup and poor braking grip. Also, it's a very noisy tire. And it's hard to balance. It seems to

Excellent traction in dry conditions, even as the road begins to cool during winter time. I've never gotten stuck in snow and only a handful of times in the rain. In the rain, they were great, they did a good enough job of ventilation to shed water.

Good price for the drop in tyre. Dry grip is very good especially for acceleration and braking. Wear is very good. No noise and comfort is not bad. On wet surface less than premium tyres, but it is still reasonable. I know the best tyres for twice the price, but they are only slightly better for everyday life. Worth the money for regular use.

The tire is only used in summer. It becomes hard and slippery as soon as the first frost arrives. It is relatively hard-wearing and wears down slowly. However, this causes a loss of traction on dry asphalt. The stopping distance is not shortened during hard braking.

I'm blown away by these tires - 6 months of snow, heavy rain, scorching heat, and not a single sign of wear even on the tread edges. My driving style is crazy speeds on hairpins on mountain roads, any weather.

My car is older, found in the list of 1992. Although I use it as a family car, it has a sporty touch. Therefore, (and due to the amount of money) I chose the tires carefully and painfully. I had no relation to Federal at all. I read people's reviews for a long time. Now I'm writing myself, because the tires turned out to be super. It's not just worth the money, but can also easily compete with, for example

Tires Theses are very average in performance, but what really lets them down is the quality. They started to deteriorate badly between the treads and they are only a couple of months old. I would recommend something else.

They were new on the car when I bought it. OK in dry, but the car wanted to leave the road if the tires even sniffed a puddle. The S80 is not a light car, but the tires felt like surfboards. Replaced with Michelin PA2.
