Exclamation Bridgestone Potenza RE750's vs Federal 595 SS

Im looking for a good tire and I cant decide between these 2. Performance for fast driving and cornering as well as good for daily driving.

What you guys think?
Help me out with my decision...

Thanks Jose

HOPE THIS HELPS!! I would love to get the RE750 for its tread depth but because of the new season around the corner, Im going to try the Federal 595 SS only because of price and cause of the d1 drivers using them!!

The Federal 595 are really nice tires for the price. They were on my Tarmac 2's for a little over a year and they performed like the RE750, except the sidewalls are softer. They grip really well and have great wet/dry factors.

I had the RE730's on my old rs and they were great tires. Great grip and much better ride quality than I had expected. Definitely a great daily driver tire. I'm not sure about traction for auto-x though.

The RE730's kind of remind me of the old RE71's. I wish they still made those. I believe that those were the best bang for the buck in performance tires ever. I still have a set for my mustang in a 245 45 17. Still plenty of tread left too.
