Federal Tires

Has anyone ever Heard of Federal Tires?

I'm gonna need a New Set for my Duramax and Found some by Federal that I Like and want to give a Shot, but I don't wanna get them if the Company isn't Good.

Even the best tires can fail. Start with an unknown cheap tire and imagine the damage a separation can do to fenders and other parts. The fun ride when more than one fail at once esp. with defective tires. The sudden tire failure/separation aka blowout can hurt people around the tire or traffic in other lanes like motorcycles or pedestrians. With all the steel hanging off the rim they are a hazard to change without good gloves after a failure. I am not going into poor traction and poor rain performance and resulting loss of control wrecks.

Think about the above and how important your tires are to your safety. Something I don't go too cheap on and refuse to run 'made in China' rubber.

I would suggest a known brand with deep pockets that can design and build decent tires then make sure the "made in" label doesn't have a communist country on it. Even Goodyear has sold out quality and makes some tires in China.

Yea, I'm def. not going Cheap on the Tires, that's why I Asked about these.

I Thought the Name Sounded Familiar, but if no one around here has Heard of them, I Guess I'm Thinking of another Brand.

General Grabber HTS. Nice tread and great wear. Sometimes they have had issues with trying to balance them.
