So far the Federals are holding up nicely, no noticeable wear issue. I guess I'll roll the dice and see how long they can hold up... if I can get an entire season or more out of them I'll be happy.

If that's the way you feel, I have a set with the rubber worn off in places...can't get less new than that! I'll make you an excellent deal. :)

In the unlikely event you are disappointed with your performance. You will not be disappointed with me handing you your Lunch twice on the same day.

FAST makes life a lot more tolerable. Lean back. Relax. Breath. Become one with the universe. It's bigger than all of us.

The "Push Harder, Suck Less" philosophy explained:
Push Harder - Drive as close to the limit of your tires as possible.
Suck Less - Drive something resembling a proper racing line.
