Alright, I’m thinking of hosting a specific **Federal SS595** GB once all the snow melts. If you don’t know or have not heard of Federal tires, these tires aren’t for you. Only drifters qualify for this GB, no hardparking on Feds. Just kidding…

Prices will be lower than any retail price you can find in Canada, as finding federal tire dealers are hard in itself.

All prices I quote will be in your hands. Full deposits would be required since I don’t do this as a business, but to help the drifters out with a awesome tire that has helped me throughout the 2007 season.

**_I WILL NOT TAKE ANY REQUESTS FOR OTHER TIRE MANUFACTURERS, Jammin1911 is the guy to talk to if you are interested in another brand of tire._**

I’ll pick the most common size…let’s say 225/45/17.

I would probably quote someone on this for $350-$400 CAD in your hands for the SET. The more people in on the GB, the lower the prices you guys will see.

Let’s see the interest now…

PS: if anyone knows me, they know that I used a set of these in 205/50/16 on my car for the REAR and that entire set lasted me all the CSCS competitions events and even lasted me 1/3 of the day at the Drift Ops VIP event.

uhh, who the fuck do you think you are buddy?

ok ok fine, not seriously 🙂

believe it or not, I actually am attempting to convince myself to not buy a set of these myself - I’ve been wanting to give these a try for quite some time.

For those aren’t arent aware for one reason or another, samsons price of $400 (or less) for a full set of 225/45/17 is like… ridiculous, i don’t know what else to call it.

just buy these.

that is all.

No you can pick different sizes.

Thanks for the kind words John!

An approximate price on a set of 235/40/18 is $500 CND in your hands. Btw, this would be the medium-upper limit.

I’m not going to go on further and start giving everyone’s quotes because that is time consuming and this is just to check interest.

Now since I’ve given 2 prices as an example for people to compare, you guys can do your homework and see if you can get anything close to it.

If you can, that’s great and I suggest you create your own GB! I’m only doing this because I’ll be getting some feddies for myself for the 08’ season and why not help out some other people as well. Probably make a few bucks and cover my transportation costs but that would be it.
