Default New Ultra-High Performance Tire!

Always searching for the "New Joints" FIRST!

Although the company has been around for years, FEDERAL TIRE is looking to raise eyebrows and cause comotion with it's new SS 595 Ultra-High Performance series tire!
From waht I have read, it looks EXTREMELY promising and innovative, and of course an extremely good value!


The SS595 is Federal's international ultra-high performance tire, developed for flagship sports cars requiring flat-out per-formance as well as excellent riding comfort. While Federal's latest fundamental tire technology, TTIC, gives wou smoother, faster and safer driving, the newly developed M.P.O.(Magnify Performance Optimization) technology also offers the driver a more consistent performance not just when new but through-out the whole life of the tire.

Flange protector protects alloy rims from curb damage
Hexiform bead profile efficiently locks tyre onto wheel rim
Three Radius Tread Arc (T.R.T.A) delivers even pressure across the contact patch
Opti-noise technology for a quiet ride
Uni-directional tread pattern

I'm currently running 275/30/19 out back. I wanted to try the Hankook Ventus Sport K-104 and this too is the only 275 they make. So far so good.

my wife;s g35c has some slight feathering on the inside edge of the hankooks and they are starting to make lots of noise. it seems the g's have rear feathering problems as opposed to our fronts.
