My husband took my car for a spin to test the tyres and couldn t make it spin or slide out in the wet full stop. The car stops on a dime. I drive to get the kids on a winding, hilly country road,It s a tar road like all other roads but if I ve been running late and my car is a v8 I won t incriminate myself of the speed I get up to but it sticks to the road like a magnet does to your fridge.On a dry road say no more,they grip and stop like no other.My oldest son did go cart racing then on to v8 racing and he took my car for a spin when I told him how much I loved the tyres. I could smell the car when he got back & knew he gave it a bit but now they are the only tyres he has had on his car since he needed knew ones,what does that tell you?...Sounds bad but I am 3 months short of having these tyre on for 2 years.I rang tyre power for a fitting for 4 next week and they can t believe I ve had them this long they just lasted forever. Admitedly you can see the canvas on the back now....You can t go wrong with these tyres!Read more

I had two put on the front of a front wheel drive car. They are positively dangerous in the wet. Considerable under-steer under normal driving conditions. On the highway at 100kph the car is not stable. They are coming off after on 1 drive in the wet and going in the bin.Read moreSimilar opinion? Write a review!

Best tyre ever bought. The original Bridgestone 45/215 tyres on my 2009 Subaru Liberty were both harsh and noisy. Wore out around 22,000.

(I went in after KHUMO tyres, which I had on several previous cars). I went with their advice. After fitment it was as if the rear of my wagon had been cut away and did not exist. Unbelievably quite. I would estimate that I have given away about 5% of handling, but gained several hundred % for ride comfort and quietness. Much better in the wet that the Bridgestones as well. I have done 20,000 and the tyres look like new. Perfect even wear. I have just ordered a new 2012 Liberty wagon which has Yokohama AVAN A10. My daughter had them on her Lancer. Unbelievably noisy. I will be getting them traded in immediately on a set of the FD2 s.Read more
Federal Formoza FD2 tire failure at < 5,000 miles Put Federal Formoza FD2s on the front of my GS350, a rear-drive car. The size is 245/30R20.

However, last night the inner sidewall of one of the tir ...Put Federal Formoza FD2s on the front of my GS350, a rear-drive car. The size is 245/30R20. They were always noisier than the Pirellis they replaced, which I chalked up to being a cheaper tire. However, last night the inner sidewall of one of the tires blew out after 4,800 miles. I ve never had a tire blow out before this. In addition to the tire blowing out, the wheel was also damaged from scraping on the road. I have yet to hear from Federal about what they intend to do to remedy the situation. Given the above experience of belt-separation by the gentleman with the similarly low-profile 245/35R20 tires, as well as experiences like this: https://www.bimmerforums.com/forum/showthread.php?2165887-PSA-Federal-Tire-Blow-Out I am beginning to think that Federal should stay out of the low-profile tire business.Read moreSimilar opinion?

Terrible tyre changed them immediately. Very poor dry grip I had the Federal Formoza installed 2 yrs ago on my Mitsubishi Lancer Ralliart.

The car, which is AWD, has had virtually no grip on dry condition corners at speed limit. The tyres felt extremely floaty and lazy. Went back to my tyre fitter and now have a much more expensive performance tyre on. Will never buy again.Read moreSimilar opinion? Write a review!
