I'm running a set of Federal Evoluzion ST-1 on my 986. I got them installed with taxes in for $650 CAD. So far so good, and I am impressed.

They feel a bit floaty for the first 100KM or miles or so, and from there they are quite grippy, so do expect a short break-in period. They remind me of the Michelin Pilot Super Sports, but a tad softer, suitable for daily driving. A few guys with the local Honda S2000 club track on them and have some good results. Not a like-for-like comparison to a Boxster, but at least somewhat of a good indication. Made in Taiwan, not China. I like them and will buy again.
