I want to give these tires the stars that they deserve. My original review is showing 1 star and I do not know how to correct it to 4 or 5 stars. I have driven on these tires from Texas to Georgia and back. I have driven on ice and in the rain and snow. These tires really shine when it comes to overall grip on the road. My only complaint is the high price of these tires.

I have not had this tire long enough to test it in winter or extreme wet conditions. The times that I have driven have shown me that the tire handles really well. The Good: Cornering is the best I have felt, stopping is spectacular, and with acceleration they just grab the road and go. I have these installed on a 2013 AWD Taurus PI, 305hp. No tire slipping or squeals even on aggressive acceleration. The Concerns: These tires are not cheap. The tires do seem to have soft rubber which I am concerned about how long they will last. I had to get my alignment adjusted shortly after buying new tires because one tire started to show signs of uneven wear just being slightly out of adjustment. Again I think that this could be due to the softness of the tire. Overall I would recommend this tire if it fits your budget and you care about excellent performance.
I use Firestone Firehawk Pursuit tires on my 600 hp 1965 GTO. I run this car on weekends through the North Georgia mountains, 180 and on Blood Mountain, these roads demand a great tire if your going to drive aggressive! And I do! This is the best DOT APPROVED TIRE! No other tire Launches Corners and Breaks like this tire.
These are probably the best tires I have ever purchased. Great quality, fast shipping. More than I bargained for.
Very nice tread pattern and decent all weather handling. Haven't had them for too long but so far I'm happy with them
I live in Anchorage, its typical to Minneapolis, Chicago and New York weather. I've just changed them Nokian Rt. A little under 4 star but with not for white ice and black ice conditions it's a 2-3 star
