Federal 595RSR inital impressions...

Well I ordered a set of 255/35/18s from Onlinetires.com and got them in Friday afternoon around 3pm, had them mounted and balanced the same day, however the balancing machine was jacked so they were not balanced correctly. I got an alignment Saturday morning, and had that shop rebalance the tires so all was good. I have driven on the tires for about 150 miles now and so far so good. Coming from an RE01R, they are very comparable, though I don't track my car, I have a 550hp/500tq street car, so I still need some traction. The tread width is larger than the RE01R and looks more like a 265 than a 255 tire, I actually had to take the 5mm spacers off the car because the tires poked out farther than the fender and I refuse to stretch the fenders... I will post up some more info as I drive the car in different enviornments, I have been taking it easy with the car as of late, will try and beat on it some this weekend...
