federal 595 = prone to separation , cheap tyre carcass .
what do you want out of the tyre would tell you what tyre to go for , wet performance , dry handling etc , whats more important and when do you push the car the most ?

I've got the Proxies TR1's. Great tyre for the price.
Hell, if they make the back end of an MR2 controlable in the wet, they gotta be good!

Motorsport is like sex. You could take it to track and have a long, enjoyable session, or you could take it to the strip and get it over with in less than 20 seconds.
