Tires Continental or Firestone
I have them on my Alltrack - 225/40/18 and absolutely love them. Better handling and quieter than the stock 17in Kumho tires
Yah, awesome tire so far. They feel very similar to a PSS to me.
I have them on my alltrack. 235/35/19....they are truly an amazing tire for the money. Couldn't be happier with them.
My setup is Firehawk Indy 500s on stock Austin wheels. 225/40/18s. In terms of performance, the tires have been about as good as I could expect on the road. Turn-in feel is excellent, road noise is subdued, and the comfort is good. There is still some wheelspin off the line, but for the price the tires are excellent.
I have a set of the new Continental extremecontact sport ready to throw on very soon. These tires were designed to compete with the new Michelin summer tires. Tirerack did a performance test on the top summer tires and they performed just under the new Michelin PS4S but for way cheaper.
Most people conclude that Grand Prix are the best mix of puncture resistance, weight, grip and speed to sort of be the industry standard.
I put Firestones on all my cars, I've been running the "Destination" line of tires for several years on multiple cars. Never had any weird issues with them at all. Id definitely recommend Firestones to put on any daily driver.
I've had both. Get the Firestone and don't look back. Best tire I've used in the price range.
They were replaced with 205/65 X 15 Continentals on VW alloys (15X7) and after 15,000km still look like new, but they are noisy.
Stock Contis are history at 30K The roaring inside the cabin due to cupping has become unbearable, so I wear foam earplugs and my shooting muffs over them.
