Not your usual tyre question

My F has TF subframes and suspension, so it's effectively a TF. I've still got a pair of Avon ZZ3s on the front, very good tyres, but no longer available. I've now got a pair of Falken Zeex 914s on the back, they seem to be good, but will be unavailable when I come to replace them. So the question is has anyone had Federal 595 205/45r16s all round?? They're not on the recommended list, but they appear to be the right diameter and have the right reinforced sidewalls and would suit my occasional track days. I don't knock up a huge mileage over a year and tend to avoid going out in the wet, although I believe they're not bad and certainly road legal.

My F came with Federals..........I wouldn't put 'em on a bloody wheelbarrow!

I have no experience of the Federals but we have Avon ZV5s on the ZR and they are very capable.
