Anyone have experience with these? Searched on the net to find barely any reviews. I'm interested in trying them out for the price. ($590 canadian for 2 225/45/17 and 2 245/40/17. Looks like a nice tire. I don't drift or track the car. It will be for day to day use.

Looks like the Falken Beta's are much better tires by that link...

well I decided to pick these tires up. I will let u guys know how they are. Can't go wrong for the price thats for sure. Apparently a few japanese drifters like the tire

I had them when I had my Acura. They sucked for FWD, and I burned them off really fast. I hope you have better luck.

Federal tires suck big monkey nuts. I have always undesteered like a bitch from them they dont wear out that fast though. Yet they really suck in return.

I was gonna get the Bridgestone fuzions but they didn't have one of the sizes i wanted in stock.
