Super grippy performance tires at competitive pric

I've had these tiers on my Solstice GXP for 7 years. They started to dry rot from climate and age, so I recently got another set. Just as good as the last. Fantastic grip that destroys stock tiers, allowing me to put all the power to the road without spinning my wheels. Can whip through corners with confidence. Very firm. Super aggressive look. Great performance for a comparatively low cost. Only thing to keep in mind is these are very stiff, so if you are looking for a soft ride, look elsewhere; because you will feel every imperfection in the road with these. For my use case, that's a benefit. Performance in heavy rain is meh, but that's not surprising with how much flat surface area there is.

These tires are really good.

I recommend these tires for really good grip in the rain and for dry weather as well the only con about it is when the tire is on like 10% tread and its raining its very slippery. Other then that its a great tire, depending on how much you drive they last.

I slide my car around all the time and they catch traction when a want and lose it when I want. Great tire, DONT DRIVE IN WINTER. if you're looking for a tire to shred rubber off of and do it a lot. This is the tire

Doesn't Handle like my Michelin Pilot sports in the turns. Feels a little Loose in the rear end as if the sidewall isn't too strong. Took them on a Trip with some Twisty Turns in my Bmw M3 didn't handle as well as I Hoped for. Will have to order new tires asap already :(

Used them for my audi s4 as daily driver/backroad fun car. They definitely had grip in a straight line but felt soft on the sidewall when turning (compared to pilot sports previously though...). Treadwear wise, I only got 15k miles out of them with rotating every 2500 miles. Idk if i had the a little over pressured or what but thought they would have lasted longer than that. Plenty good for the price thought when i got them (170ish per tire).

Bought these tires for my 2017 fiesta st. Bought 205/50r16. These are a really great budget summer tire. Grip levels are great in the dry, pretty good in the wet too. What I was most impressed with was the comfort. These tires ride so much better than the stock bridgestones that came with my car. Overall this is really great summer tire, and you really can't beat it at this price point.

Get technical:

The Firestone Firehawk Indy 500 is an ultra-high-performance summer tire that’s designed for use on compact cars, sedans, coupes, sports cars, and muscle cars, and offers drivers impressive handling, better hydroplaning resistance, and excellent braking performance.



Features & Benefits

  • Ultra-high-performance tread; should not be used when temperatures are consistently below 45 degrees Fahrenheit
  • Black sidewall
  • Backed by Firestone’s 90 day Buy and Try Guarantee on tires sold in sets of 4 or more (certain restrictions and limitations apply)
  • Wider footprint and robust tread compound ensure extended wear life by fending off uneven wear

Built to offer reliable handling and impressive controllability in dry and wet conditions, the Firestone Firehawk Indy 500 is one of the best ultra-high-performance summer tires on the market suitable for use in warmer weather conditions, in temperatures below 45 degrees Fahrenheit. An ideal choice for performance seekers and racing aspirants, the Firehawk Indy 500 features wider shoulders that increase the tire’s stiffness to offer excellent cornering confidence to the drivers. While the Pulse Groove Channel in the tread pattern ensures water evacuation for reduced risk of hydroplaning and improved wet handling, the improved rubber compound and optimized tread pattern reduce the stopping distance of the tire on wet roads by up to 20% than its prior generation Firestone Wide Oval Indy 500 tire. Designed and engineered for use on compact cars, sedans, coupes, muscle, and sports cars, the Firestone Firehawk Indy 500 is compatible with vehicles like the Dodge Challenger, BMW M3, Audi S4, Ford Mustang, Chevrolet Corvette, Toyota Corolla, Lexus IS, Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution, and Subaru BRZ.
