Federal track tyres 595
Well, as a few said they had purchased a set and FCS has now bin by, can anyone leave some reviews on them? Good or bad? compare them to some other tyres?
Please keep it on topic. Really interested in some reviews.

Was my first track day and I used a new set of these, was really impressed with the amount of grip, for the price I'd definitely recommend a set!

Been using mine everyday for the past 3 months now. I love them! They last a hell of a lot better than my A048's too, I must have easily done 3 or 4k on them and I still have 5-6mm left on the fronts.
I'm a bit stupid for using them on the road as I did buy them purely for track but I've become so used to them now. I went back to my T1R's the other day as I thought I would preserve the 595's but I can honestly say they were back on after a 5min drive!
