Tires Firestone or GENERAL TIRE
I have changed my tires from Michelin Pilot Sport 3's to General G Max AS-05.
I recently took my car on an aggressive mountain pass in 70 degree weather and here's my findings.
1)Driving at 80-90mph on straight highway cruising the General G Max create more wind noise than the Pilot Sports.
Way better than BFG KO2.
I have the 32 inch E rated version on my F150. They have been fantastic so far, 1.5 years in. I live in SW Montana, so we get snow and ice. They work great for an all terrain.
I've had the General Altima tires for a few years. They have done me well
General as05 is pretty good for an all season
General GMax RS. Cheap and grippy, not too noisy and they do well in the rain.
The Firehawk Indy 500 tires aren't perfect but they hold up well on a track known for eating tires. Additionally they are predictable in wet/dry conditions which is perhaps more important for learning.
If you don't need run flats, get Firestone Firehawk Indy 500s. Rebadged Bridgestone tires that are stickier than most Michelin tires, and cheaper too
Another vote for the Generals. My CRV seems to ride like **** and handle like dog-**** with them on, but I love the abuse.
I had the Firestone Steeltex the ones before the Transforce with good tread They had less cracking than I see on yours. Drivers front blew out on the way home from vacation, 70 MPH and barely missing the concrete median. Personally I would replace them and personally I would not go with Firestone
