Federal Super Steel 657 Review

Touring tires combine excellent all weather traction and driving comfort to promote a secure performance. They are manufactured for long distance performance and ensure a safer performing capability and power. Such tires are easily controlled, provide all weather traction, and in most cases are fuel efficient and offer a lengthened tread life.

Here at Priority Tire, we offer a wide range of different touring tires for passenger vehicles. One of our best-selling model’s is Federal’s Super Steel 657. This model guarantees exceptional all weather traction, first-rate controllability, a fuel efficient performance, a lengthened tread life and high comfort levels to ensure your driving enjoyment at all times.

All Weather Performance

All season models are capable of safely performing in all weather conditions. This allows them to upgrade the vehicle’s driving safety and controllability. The tread design and compound of these tires is enhanced for them to firmly grip the road surface throughout the year.

The Super Steel 657 was designed with a symmetric tread design from an all season tire compound. This combination enables the tire to firmly grip the road surface in dry, wet and winter weather. This allows the tire to safely perform all year round. The detailed tread design upgrades the grip the tire has on the road surface, while the compound keeps its rubber flexibility in all weather and effectively resists different weather damage. The tread design and all season compound increase the year round driving safety.

The model also prevents hydroplaning, which is a dangerous road hazard. Hydroplaning happens when the water and slush located on the road surface blocks the tire’s contact with the road, which makes the vehicle skid and the driver lose control over it. The Super Steel 657 features circumferential grooves that manage to channel water and slush away from the tire’s footprint. This boosts the model’s wet and winter traction and its actively resists hydroplaning in the process.

Fuel and Cost Efficiency

Fuel efficient models manage to lower the vehicle’s fuel consumption and CO2 emissions, which significantly lowers the fuel cost per mile. These tires utilize different technologies to achieve a lowered rolling resistance and to ensure a secure performance in this manner.

The Super Steel 657 was designed with a symmetric tread design and a flat footprint. These maintain the tire’s constant road contact and enable it to evenly distribute the driving pressure along the tread area. This eases the driving pressure off the tire and lowers its rolling resistance. The decreased rolling resistance in turn lessens the vehicle’s fuel intake and CO2 diffusion, promoting a fuel efficient and environmentally friendly performance.

The tread design’s constant road contact also helps lengthen its tread life. The durable tire compound, even pressure distribution and reduced rolling resistance upgrade tread life and the tire’s usability. The stronger tire compound is wear-resistant, while the lessened rolling resistance eases the pressure off the tire, which slows the tread wear rate down significantly. The tread pattern and the flat footprint maintain constant contact with the road surface, which ensures even pressure distribution, preventing irregular tread wear. The slower even tread wear greatly lengthens the tread life.

Handling and Controllability

A tire’s controllability in an important aspect of their performing capability. They need to ensure a fast and precise steering response, a stable structure and secure maneuvering to ensure a safer control over the vehicle.

The Super Steel 657 was designed with a symmetric tread design, which closely follows the road surface at all times. Its flat footprint enhances the tire’s driving security and it guarantees an improved road contact. The tire’s better road contact upgrades the steering responsiveness and the driving stability. This makes the steering quicker and more accurate in its response to the driver’s commands, while the structure is secured against the driving pressure affecting the model. This allows the tire to safely perform to its greatest capability in all conditions.

The model’s optimal shoulder tread block placement enhances its cornering capability. The tread blocks increase the cornering and maneuvering ability and power by promoting additional biting edges with the shoulder tread block patterns. This allows the tire to securely perform throughout the year.

High Comfort Levels

Road noise heard and vibrations felt in the vehicle’s cabin can ruin the driving enjoyment of the passengers. Manufacturers strive to decrease the road noise and vibration levels during the drive, to ensure a quiet and comfortable driving experience.

The Super Steel 657’s symmetric tread design and the flat footprint closely follow the road surface at all times. This allows the tire to absorb the shock of driving while the tires are in motion, which significantly decreases the road vibrations felt in the vehicle’s cabin. The tread design’s optimal variable pattern lowers the road and tread pattern noise generated while the tires are in motion. This creates a sound frequency that negates the road noise levels at the moment they are created, before they can disturb the passengers. This allows the tire to ensure an enjoyable drive and performance.
