What brand is Federal tires?
2 Answers
Federal is a brand under Taiwan's Ta Feng Group, with the Chinese name Fei De Le. Here is some relevant information: 1. Ta Feng Tire (Jiangxi) Co., Ltd. was established in 1997, invested by Taiwan's Ta Feng Tire Co., Ltd., which ranks among the top 50 in the global tire industry. It is the earliest wholly Taiwanese-owned enterprise in Jiangxi Province and the largest automobile tire manufacturer and key export-oriented enterprise in the region. 2. The "Hero HERO" and "Federal FEDERAL" semi-steel radial tires launched by Ta Feng Tire (Jiangxi) Co., Ltd. have received high praise in domestic and international markets, with products sold in over 120 countries and regions across five continents. 3. Ta Feng Tire Co., Ltd. was founded in 1954. From 1960-1979, it collaborated with Japan's Bridgestone Corporation, and from 1981-2000, with Japan's Sumitomo/Dunlop Rubber Corporation. These two major technical partnerships have equipped Ta Feng with robust R&D capabilities, establishing its own brand—Ta Feng Tires—today.
Federal tires are products of Federal Tire Corporation, a brand from Taiwan that is quite well-known internationally. I used them on my own car for one summer and felt they had good grip on dry roads, with a price significantly lower than Michelin or Bridgestone. They are suitable for sporty cars like the Fit or Civic, but can be a bit unstable in wet conditions. It's recommended that owners choose based on their driving habits—for daily commuting, avoid overly performance-oriented models. Pairing with good tires can improve fuel efficiency and safety.
