Keep in mind that sticky tires usually have lower treadwear; however, these are definately streetable/daily drivable. For SS595: 240 on most tires, 260 on some. Full Spec Sheet: Federal SS595 Spec Sheet (PDF) For SS535: 260 on most tires, 320 on some. Full Spec Sheet: Federal SS535 Spec Sheet (PDF)

215/50/17 are scrapping for me upfront, it could be the bad offset of my wheels, but would 215/45/17 help the scrapping a little? And these tires do have the rim protector right? Not sure what it's called, but if the rim was curbed, it would hit the tire first, not the rim, do you get what I'm saying? L O L . Anyways, I'm ready to order, and if I order by tomorrow, could I get it this weekend? 29323 is the zipcode. So many questions, sorry. Let me know though, Thanks!

If your car is lowered at all, you shouldn't be running a 50 series tire on a 17.
50 series are for 16s and 15s. Get a 45 or 40.

dreaMervaj, You current setup is wayyyy offf stock sizing. Comparing to stock: 195/60R15, 215/50R17: 4.91% diameter difference, which will read 5.165% slower on ur speedo than you are actually going. That's worse than most people who go 18" rims... 215/45R17 is a little better: 1.63% difference, 1.656% slower speedo reading 215/40R17 is better/worse compared to 45 series depending on what you like: 1.82% difference, 1.85% faster speedo reading. If you are only replacing the fronts, this won't really matter as much (this is more reference for your rear tires ) I personally prefer the 215/40R17, but of course, up to you. The sidewall on the Federal tires have a rim protector. Most of this protection depends on if you are stretching (or squeezing) a tire onto your rim. I'm guessing you are running your 215 on a 17x7; Federals should provide decent rim protection. Since you mentioned you are rubbing in the front, I suppose you want 2 tires? Cost for 2 (215/40 or 215/45) for you w/ discount: $132.90 + shipping. Shipping via UPS Ground: $53.34 Shipping USPS Express Mail: $137.90 Typically it takes 1-2 business days for us to get the tires and get everything ready to ship out. Considering you are on the opposite coast, I would say there is very very little chance it can get to you by this weekend. However, if you are willing to pay the extra for USPS Express Mail, call us first thing tomorrow morning and we'll see what we can do. Otherwise, just regular UPS it and you'll get it in time for next weekend . Remember, you can get an accurate and exact quote any time by checking out through our web site! THANKS FOR THE INQUIRIES! -QV

*oops, missed a question.
As for the rubbing, it depends on what is rubbing where. Either a smaller sidewall or stetched tire to clear, or non-tire solution, aka spacers or different rims... all depends on what your problem is exactly and how you want to go about it. *A 215/45 will help if the very top of the tire was rubbing. If the sidewall is rubbing, your better option would be a 205 tire if you don't want to go spacers... GOOD LUCK!

I'll wait for the EVOs, they have my size. They look like they might be better too. Haha.
Or, I'll just wait for the EVOs to come, then buy up all the SS595s when they're being cleared out.

hahaha I love these tires. good grip at autox, looks mean, cheap enough to do burnouts all day!! You seriously can't go wrong with these tires.
I'm running 235/40/17 & 255/40/17 and they perform great. Bang for the bucks! Keep it up QV! VL |
