I’ve only got a focus st but my firestone fire hawk indy500s have been really nice to me. Not 200tw so they’ll last longer but lots of grip and not terribly expensive
I've really enjoyed my Firestone Indy 500s. Plenty of grip and they give confidence in the rain.
I'm waiting on my factory tires to get a little more wear on them before I replace them. However, when I do I know I'm going with a much better set of Firestone tires then what the factory put.
The "replacement" for these is the Cooper Discoverer Road+Trail AT which is an excellent tire, basically the same as what you have with a few refinements.
I've had Cooper Discoverer AT3 4S tires on my 2019 Tacoma TRD Sport 4x4 since 2020, specifically because they weren't as aggressive and were severe snow rated. The Coopers did pretty good with this but they've been discontinued so I'm debating getting their replacement or switching to someone else.
Having said that I had AT3 4s tires on my F150, and even at 70k km they still outperformed all season tires.
Slippery situations involving rain and snow have fully convinced me of their grip. Get them. I have 22s and still bulldoze through most. Wet, muddy hills though? No problem. Cooper Discoverer AT3 4S 285/50/22 is specifically what I have. Very quiet.
cooper tires are great, firestones will ride like shit (i have all season firestones ._.)
I have a vendetta against Firestone since they exploded on my Explorer and nearly wrecked me, only had like 10k miles.
It's wild to me that Firestone has been so invisible and irrelevant in the consumer market ever since the Ford Explorer fiasco, yet still so active in Indycar.
