I'm using Federal 595. Not sure whether is it 595Evo. It sure is noisy as hell and wouldn't really recommend it. Grip is good though..

I used Federal "Formoza FD2", since Oct 2008. Low cost and good performance. Much better tyres than original fixed with Latio car.

Just got my 959RPM changed at upper paya leber, higher grade & better performance than EVO. Price are reasonable and service are good.

Drove off the shop, can feel the steering are much lighter & responsive. low noise level. now waiting for my new shoes to run-in

Yes, This place is cheaper, was quoted $120 for 17" EVO. But is too far for me & inconvience, so end up at paya lebar which near my place

SS595 is noiser, confirmed
