I got some Firestone Destination XTs about 1k miles ago in the stock size. I wanted LT tires for the stability towing. So far they are working great. Way better off road and wet traction then the stock Pirelli Scorpions. But they hang on to gravel bad.
I'd recommend Firestone Firehawk Indy 500. They're really good and affordable tires that have excellent grip. They don't have much road noise and last decently long.
I said fuck it, bought the second cheapest Dunlop Sportmax Roadsport 2 ($200 for both) and man do i not feel anything different on the streets! Ive hit triple digits and they have all felt safe!
My car came with dunlop enasave ec300 tires which have maxium pressure of 2,75 bar and proper tire pressure for Leaf would be 2,6-3,0.
I have run the Indy 500s on two Minis, Audi A8 with a 630HP tuned motor, Volvo V90 and Mercedes E550 with a Renntech tune. EXCELLENT tires for the money, Tirerack has great prices!
I’m currently running the Indy 5 hundies and I do like them and they grip very well. Not so great in heavy rain tho
I rode Indy 500s on my focus st for many years. The performance and price are amazing. The amount of grip transformed that car. The ride quality is a little harsh but not noisy.
Mine held up really well and was decent on the road and hard dirt and gravel.
Loose stuff though? Not a fan.
Yes and they sucked. I was lucky to have a very mild winter but I remember one day when it was probably around 25 with a fresh dusting of snow and they were ice skates.
I currently have a set of Firestones on my car. I hate them. Noisest tire I have ever used, and they are leaving black marks on my garage floor. But they were cheep and that's all I could afford at the time. Never again.
