these are a bargain! one size down 255 all round but how much difference will that make do you think?

I am running these in 265/35/18 all round. Only managed to run them in and get 2 dry laps of the ring, but initial impressions are that they are great for the money. I would say they are nearly as good, if not equal to, the tyres matt is running. Wet track and cold tyres is another story though! :whistle:

And just to one up Matt's picture effort:thumbs:

SORRY Daniel but there is no way these are anywhere near as good as DUNLOP DZ series tyres, which cost twice as much and are on parr/comparable with Michelin CUPs. It's like saying TOYO R888 are nearly as good as Michelin CUPs. For a start, once wormed up the Dunlop DZs just go on & on gripping, lap after lap without any loss of grip what so ever :supz:
Early days for U yet with these Federalls me thinks and watch the tread wear, I'm guessing they will not last very long :whistle:

My part worn Dunlops so far have done 60 DRY laps of the Ring, 9 laps of Spa :thumbs: and three UK track days :supz: I bought them with 4 mm tread and there is still about 1.5 mm left before they become full slicks :hahaha:

[daniel_csl]

Yeah, early days I guess but I am impressed and for the money I am not complaining. You can come out with me in august and judge for yourself. :thumbs:

Deal :thumbs: but I'm not sure I'll be @ the Ring in August :smt017
I love a bargain too so it would be interesting to feel the Federalls working heard. Are U doing any UK TDs before then ? :whistle:

I would like to a UK TD in between but the prices are so high at the moment as it is high season I guess. I wouldn't mind brands or bedford again. Which ones you doing?
