ran them thru a canadian winter and the are very grippy tires on hard packed snow and ice. the tread pattern is insane.
Falken are really great on my Mercedes Benz
My wife bought a car from carvana and i noticed on delivery that the tires were at the wear bars. Took it to Firestone, they filed a claim with SR on the spot and had new tires in a couple of hours. Can’t complain about that.
Firehawks are a pretty solid high performance tire.
I put 235/45/19 Firestone Destination LE3s on my '16 and it was about $1200 because of the size.
I'd maybe recommend the newer [Falken RT660+ in 225/45ZR15](https://www.tirerack.com/tires/tires.jsp?tireMake=Falken&tireModel=Azenis+RT660%2B&sidewall=Blackwall&partnum=245WR5RT660P&tab=Sizes) since they're a little wider and a grippier compound.
I have the AT3W on my ram. 5 years 70,000 miles no rotations (got lazy this time). I just purchased a set of the AT4W. Hoping to get as many miles, or more with proper rotation.
Looks fine other than it’s wet and has other people’s rubber on it. You’re gonna find out that the Indy 500 is not a track tire. So when you push really really hard, it’s gonna get really greasy and loose very quickly.
I’ve had the Wildpeaks on my lifted Sienna for 15,000km. They are already down to 6/32 hydroplane in rain and spin out on paved sanded road up to the ski hill. There wasn’t even any snow on the road and 4 cars behind me passed when I had to stop in the middle of the road because I could not move forward. I’m not impressed.
I wanted to write this because there are almost no reviews on this tire online. Firestone claims it's a big improvement over the previous generation. Traction is good on wet and dry roads. Slippage prediction is also decent. Road noise is fine. Ride comfort (in terms of feeling the road) is really good. Steering responsiveness is ABYSMAL. It's like driving an aquarium on top of a trampoline. Due to the fact the sidewall seems to be made of marshmallows, it's quite terrifying doing any aggressive driving. Highway driving, making turns specifically, is terrifying. Overall: Do not buy unless it's for rears only, or you're driving a car that is exceptionally light weight. If the steering and body movement responsiveness was fixed, this would be an excellent tire. Sadly the responsiveness is so bad, the tire feels legitimately dangerous.
