[petesonfire]

hi just a quick one to see if anyone has used maxxis or federal tyres, i can get them cheap from work but never used them before, apparently maxxis are cheap in this country but in europe are standard on some cars and federal do track tyres any info will be handy cheers

EDC's (European Drift Championship) standard tyres. Not sure what they're like for road tyres though...

they do sports designs but i thought they were along the lines of nankangs ie ditchfinders.

known people fit them and have grip issues though i have never had them myself.

had them on the car when first brought it no problems at all

I love the chunky Federal rim protectors. The tyres are quite grippy, the rubber is softer than Nankangs. Ive used them in the past and I found them quite good for an average brand.

I got federals put on my mk 1.5 before a trackday and they are very good, nice and grippy and when warmed up very smooth, did not have any problems in terms of losing the back end or skidding out, and on normal road they have very good grip and good on turns. They are 205/45/16's
