how are these tires?

[JDMStanced]

i'm looking for new tires that are good for dry and wet.
SUNNY SN3800 93W BSW
FEDERAL SS-595 84W BSW
SUNNY SN3970 88W BSW
ACHILLES Atr Sport 88W XL BW

i found many good reviews about these tires except for SN 3970. tell me what you guys think about these.
Also, which ones give nice stretch?

[JDM_Tuner]

FEDERAL SS595 FTW, definitely the best tires for the price. and for sure the best tires out of the 4 models you posted. I and most kansas drifters run feds

[speedgod^s13]

From what i've heard, Sunny's give a lot of road noise, but they are usually pretty cheap. I run Federal 595 Super Steels, and only have a small stretch, but they look pretty nice. For the price, I can't complain, and i'd buy them again, with no hesitation.

[s14j]

i just got federals 595 and there great!

sunny are ehh but they are nosier,

i think for the price fedies are great.
go with them.

[JDMStanced]

you guys really like fed huh lol
Anyone have a hook up on these tires?
i know a place that sells sunny but not sure about fed.

[Mikey McFly]

Sunny's were no good for me. At least for wet roads in Florida. I haven't tried the Feddies but I hear a lot of good things about them. Also, they run a bit bigger than most other companies.

[SBCsx]

Federals SS595 I really think its the most bang for the buck and they do run a little big.

what's that mean?

[Swifty]

what's that mean?


I believe he is saying they are priced good and the probably run a little bigger then other tire sizes I'm guessing

lol.
i mean 235/35/19 is exactly the one i'm looking for. How much bigger are the fed to others?

[Swifty]

Couldn't be by much probably not even noticeable if you ask me!

[JDMStanced]

will there be a big difference in overall height between 215/35/19 and 245/35/19 on same 9" rims?

[Quail]

215 has a 75.25mm sidewall, 245 has a 85.75mm sidewall.

[DJPimpFlex]

Federals run wide, IE a 225 federal is like a 235 every other brand. Also they are great for drifting for the money and THIS HAS BEEN TALKED ABOUT BEFORE.

I have the SN3800s and can cosign this, they are LOUD on the road, but have always done me well in the NC rain (and even snow once), not bad for tires I only paid 70 each a year and a half ago.

[ayuaddict]

Sunnys and Federals tend to stretch out the entire sidewall instead of pushing the bead out. And as previously stated they run on the wider side so if you are looking to get a 235/35/19 in say, Falken FK size, get a 225/35.

Achilles stretch nicely and quite a bit.

As far as quality goes, don't expect any kind of decent grip out of any of those tires.

P.S. Your screen name is so stancenation its not even canibeat anymore.

^^^i like that

[ILoveMyRHS13]

hellaillestbeat

[illvialuver]

federals are called fateralls for a reason. And achiles do stretch well.

[azndoc]

Hit up City Tires for the Feds.

[whiterps13]

CITY TIRE ONLINE (http://www.citytireonline.com)

[JDMStanced]

city tire sells em like $30 more expensive then onlinetires

[ayuaddict]

Canibeat sucks 30% more cock than Stancenation.

[JDMStanced]

is there a tire shop near irvine that sells fed, and achilles?

[S14kouki_10]

federals suck on wet roads.

[deolio]

i've had the feddys and the achilles. the feddys were a tad bit better and lasted longer when drifting.

check out the internet. they have all kinds of deals.

[JDMStanced]

considering falken fk 452 too.
i've been searching for a long time. lol

[deolio]

fk452's are terrible for their price.

go to https://www.onlinetires.com/

or look around some local used tire shops. usually have way better tires than any you have listed for crazy cheap.

[!Zar!]

I love dz101's in rear. ALL DAYYYYYY. Shits won't die.

[PNgo12]

Check out 714tires. I hear they sell tires for real cheap, give them a call, they're off the 405 at the Westminster exit, not too far from Irvine.

<3

[JDMStanced]

i'll give 714tire a call. thanks!

dz101 is dunlop, right? i have em on stock rims. Once they wear out little, the road noise is bad. not liking em

[JDMStanced]

called 714tires. All they have is federal 595 for 215/35/19 for $111 mounted.
He said federal tires are FAT but not WIDE.
They don't have 205/35/19 cause it's not a usual size.
Anyone has pics of 215/35 FEDERAL on 9"?

[jeremy242]

I have run the achilles atr's on all of my cars. They are cheap, hard, and last. They stretch well and look good.

[TooFortyEssExx]

I also say no to sunny's and yes to feddiees. Slid like crazy in the rain with the sunny's and also are loud as hell.

[JDMStanced]

how about falken fk452? i reading many good reviews with saying that they make loud road noise.
OnlineTires has very bad reviews so i'll have to pass.
any other tire shops other than discount tire?
looking to spend around $130 for a tire

Get Yokohama S-Drives then. I don't know how much they'll be for your size since you're looking for 19's or if they even make them in 19's but call around and look it up.

[!Zar!]

dz101's are loud, but they grip well, smoke great, and last. Not to mention they stretch AWESOME.

Word. The setup for great things.

[Sarom_ps13]

I hear sunny's last for a long time in the dry..

do you know a place where i can get em, or falken fk452? 714tire doesn't have it.
only Federal.

[!Zar!]

I still want to give Kenda Kaiser's a go.

[ILoveMyRHS13]

I still want to give Kenda Kaiser's a go.
A bunch of locals are sponsored by Kenda and they swear by them now. It's worth a shot.

Yeah, out here in cali they aren't popular. Maybe I'll give their driver support program a shot.

[PNgo12]

Well I got mine at America's tire, Discount tire whatever. They were about 130 each mounted and balanced for a 215/40/17 and 235/40/17.

[hOngsterr]

get federal RSR lol

really?
i was quoted about $150 installed for 235/35/19 fk 452 from 714 tires.
i got 215/35/19 hankook ventus v12 for $360 installed.
THe production date shows 1010..10th week in 2010. I thought they are suppose to give me the ones made in 2011..
They cool guys though

[lflkajfj12123]

quite a few chicago drivers love the kendas

[JDMStanced]

when you guys buy tires, do you care about the overall diameter ratio between front and rear?

It'll be just right for me if i match rear 235/40/19 with 215/35/19 front instead of 235/35/19 rear. The diamter difference is 5.61%.

Right now, until i get new tires for rear rims, i have 215/35/19 front and 245/45/18 rear. BIG difference in diameter but my 350z doesn't light up SLIP sign. Do not have TPMS (aftermarket rims)
245/35/19 might BARELY tuck the sidewall. nothing's for sure.
235/40/19 would definitely tuck the tires.
The reason i don't want 235/35/19 is because if i do use them, my car would be dropped VERY close to the ground due to decrease in overall diameter. But still, not being able to touch the fender with sidewall.
My front vertex bumper is already VERY close to ground.
can i go 235/40/19 rear? I won't be racing in the street. i take it to the track.

[fliprayzin240sx]

I'm a fan of ATRs...thats all I shreaded for the rears in Okinawa. They grip awesome for drift tires and they're better than most in the wet for summer tires.
