I can't really answer that for you but I will probably still run the RSRR or FZ201 for casual HPDE events. Just inspect them after sessions

So tempting...I liked the way RS-RR drive, just not sure if they're fast enough for me. Def picking up a pair of fronts for my drift car though. Thanks!

This code will be active through 2017 and there will be a new code for 2018 but the % discount may vary.

Also, for reference, a similar delamination has been known to occur on the RS4. I even saw some of our favorite child RE71Rs at Global Time Attack last week with tread splitting issues.

The federals are a "you get what you pay for" tire. They are cheap and they perform at the bottom/middle of the 200tw catagory in autocross. Definitely not good for a roadcourse and these claims they produce such great grip are what is really blown out of proportion. Habkooks by far were a better tire from my experience. The rs-rrs does perform well on the street though especially when cold. I'll give them that for sure and that's where I think people love them and rave about them most.

That's a pretty aggressive generalization on your part... I've seen two examples of tread separation on RS4s that have only been available for ~8 months. I don't doubt that there are QA issues at Federal but this is an issue for every brand and in every industry.

Just info: My virus software detects a trojan at that website now. Hope they get it sorted. Am seriously considered trying out the Federals vice RE-71s as they are half the price.

So I take this back, I found a split in the tread in a pair I threw out. My rep said that after talking with one of the federal engineers who was at Super Lap Battle, he claims that they know of the issue on a small number of the tires that are driven really hard but no one has had any issues with delamination, failure, air loss etc. These tires are all over the place at time attack events and there are people driving them hard, pretty sure a failure would be front-page news. Most people I speak to state that the FZ201 is equally as fast at an NT01 but with worse manners on track and a very slightly shorter life span - these should be in stock within a week, I'm waiting for some sets myself.
