Ford Falcon xr6 Tyre Review Highlights

Writing about the Federal SS595 SUPER STEEL given 91% (245-45-17-V)
Driving on mostly town for 2000 average miles
Great dry grip, braking and quiet. Great front end grip. Much better than the dunlops on it from new. Drives well in wet and only complaint is the wheels can spin from take off on a wet road.

Have tried kuhmos yokis P6s bridestones dunlops...Nankang are just as good..sensible driving and the tyres are superb...act like an idiot and they still treat you well..dry and wet weather use are excellent...great wear rates..dont judge these tyres by price as they may have a budget price but they have great performance...you will not regret buying them...in australia we have the most extreme and harsh road conditions in the world and these tyres survive..they are also American auto rated at A rating for wear and an A rating for wet driving and a 480 wear rating...if you put a premium stamp on these tyres most of the the so called tyre kickers who give this tyre a bad rating would give them praise...

Give me a break, The Kumho KH Series of Tyres are a winner for NZ road conditions. I've read the reviews, what a load of crap. Most of you winers are driving "Front Wheel drive Cars" and the Hyundai late model vehicles seem too precious to handle a fantastic tyre. I got full traction on a wet road making a right turn from a standing start planting the boot in a falcon ute with and empty tray with no tail sway...if that isn't good traction in the wet then nothing is. These are made of good rubber, get a wheel alignment to reduce wear and while good value are a performance tyre in my view....would definitely repeat the purchase.

Generally speaking very positive all round. Unable to fault except a little or slightly noisier than I expected. Price not hapy but when buying toward the top end what can you expect?

Writing about the Bridgestone Potenza RE001 given 76% (235-45-17-W)
Driving on mostly country roads for 10000 spirited miles
Bang for buck these are a great tyre. I remain unimpressed by the level of road noise compared to a similar specced Toyo tyre but that is the only complaint and in fairness the XR6 Falcons have always suffered road noise issues anyway.

Writing about the Dunlop SP Sport Maxx given 69% (245-35-19-W)

these tyres are generally good for noise and dry weather driving however Ive found them to have very poor wet weather grip especially at the rear end
