Right now im using federal ss595 195/45/15 and looking for something with slightly better performance while staying 195/45

Would i be wasting my time and money by upgrading to the s-drives?

In for info on the s-drives....

I bought s-drives for my front wheels When they arrive. They have a nice tread pattern and seem to be a bit thicker than my falkens. I hears great things about them. Nt good fr stretching though.

Federals are throw away's. Think sidewall smoke makers, you should have no problem finding an upgrade.

My gf just got sdrives after having toyos and she loves them under normal driving already. You can get them for a good price if you search hard enough

on 4 lbs 233hp165tq the federals seem to be grabbing very nicely in 2nd and 3rd, no spin at all.
ill return here on 12 lbs and see how they hold up
