Regarding your scratched wheels, yup mabebenta mo parin yan, linisin mo lang yung pinag gasgasan, abang ka lang sa sulit para makakuha ng buyer willing to pay your asking price. Mahal sa Payless ang Federals, more than 6k each after discount yan, youre better off going to DKC Cubao, Blumentritt or Evangelista.
Yung tires ko, Sonny Ingens A1, 225/45/18 ang size, I got some good reviews sa MLPH kasi and testimonials of actual users of this tire, grip is good, hindi noisy and as per the tire shop that I got it from, sabi nila matigas daw talaga sidewall nito at maraming kumukuha sa kanila. I inquired about Federal 595SS tires din sa shop na yun, mura benta nila *5.1k each, pero hindi nila sakin pinilit yun and said na ok naman daw quality nung Ingens A1.
Another good thing about these tires is malapad yung rim guard, iwas scratches sa beloved wheels natin, however being a 'China' tire (gaya ng Nankang, Wanli, Westlake and Sunny), never ko siguro ito ipapangtrack, baka peligroso sa buhay.
Kung may budget ka lang din sir, go with the Federal 595SS tires, bang for the buck yun, good for your daily drive and at least may confidence ka for track use, yung sakin kasi budget tires lang talaga and I originally intended to use them for transportation and porma lang.
If limited budget mo, at least meron ka ng first hand testimonials regarding these China Brands (Westlake, Sonny Ingens, Nankang).
