  • Anyone run these tires? Federals.

    185/60R13 FEDERAL SS-595

    Thinking of putting them on the racecar.. I'm running on 4 (great tread, but) heavily dry-rotted BF Goodrich 195/60 (in rear), 175/70 (in front) tires. They ride alright, but when pushed even a bit, say 60+, they wobble the car like a freight train. Don't even ask how they drive at 95+ LOL.

    I wish BF still made 13-inchers, but it seems the last set they made was over 5 years ago. I love the white-letters sticking out 1/4 inch, as it gives it a nice look.

    So my question is, has anyone run them, and how do they handle cornering ect.? I'll only be driving them during the warm months. I see a lot of mixed reviews, but haven't really found many reviews for under 15 inchers.

    I saw them on 'GroupBuyTires' for about $55 each, $290 shipped to my door. And they look pretty.

    Thank you all! I know you love yet another tire question thread.
