IMO these tyres should never be allowed
I can honestly say, over 40 years of purchasing tyres for out cars the Federal SS657 tyres are the worst. In the Wet they are absolute horror.

Bought these for my Prius, and I'm really surprised they are so quiet for this price. They handle well and are very decent in rain. I haven't had them long and haven't used them in snow, so I can't comment on those things, but so far I'm really happy with them.
A premium touring tire, the Super Steel 657 is designed for use on micros, coupes, and sedans and offers drivers strong performance on wet and dry roads along with a long tread life.
Features & Benefits
All-season tread
Outlined White Letter or Black sidewall depending on the tire's size
Tread pattern design is optimized to give drivers a quiet, comfortable ride
Finding a tire that's built to last and performs year round is a must for many drivers, and the Super Steel 657 does that and more for drivers of micros, coupes, and sedans. Wide grooves within the tread remove water from the road to reduce the risk of hydroplaning, and the Super Steel 657's special rubber compound increases performance on wet and dry roads while also allowing for a longer tread life.
