Tyres For The Phoon.

[JoeG]

I heard these are a good tyre as well....will look at them myself when the time comes...J.

-> Federal ss595

For what its worth a friend of mine recommended I try Federal SS-595 tyres after some very good reviews from members of his car club. While these guys all drive WRX's I thought it was worth trying.

I have had them on my Phoon for 8000km and all I can say is they are awesome. Very underated due to their relatively low cost ($230 a corner). But they outperform the SP9000 by a fair margin in the wet and dry. Unless something dramatic happens I will be getting them again.

I had Toyo Proxies on my XR6T and they were complete crap. Worse than the 95% worn SP3000 that came off.

If money is no object and you need to get the best, buy the PS2. If you want to try a great tyre that outperforms the SP9000 at half the price you can't go past the Federal SS-595.
