no compromise.. federal 595 tires....



haha had a closeeeeeeee shave this morning on the way to work........ all because of too high an entry speed......

well of cos i can blame no one...... i was rushing to make the turn before the lights turn red and guess what, one van was kinda chasing me haha...... surely this was not the first time i'd run into this guy but no way am i going to let him get away...... 

so when i approached the turn, i was downshifting from five to four then three without much time for braking.... it's only when i reached the stop-line that i realised i was a little faster than usual .....TOO LATE!!!!!!!!! by that time the tires were screeching and i only had time to tap the brakes and steer the car through...... 

although the tires were complaining all the way and the car was very uncomfortable at that 
moment, i somehow managed to overcome it.....

this finally confirmed my suspicions that the yokohama a10 is nowhere near its other advan cousins.......

and armed with a limited budget, i had to exclude the hankook v12, eagle f1 asymmetric, bridgestone and better yokohama.................. 

that left me with the only possible choice.... the federal 959...!!

let me tell you, for the price, the 959 is a amazing tire............ you will be shocked at how affordable they are..... and they dun disappoint!
