Tires Firestone or KENDA
i have 20 x 1.75 kenda commuter tires. i usually fill them to about 40-45psi, i think the side wall says 40-60 psi?
After looking into it a bit I went with a set of Firestone Indy500s that mounted and balanced came out to less than $800. Had them for 6 months now, and no complaints so far.
As far as Indycar goes, it is hard to find a more prestigious tire company than Firestone. They have been a good partner to the Series for a long time.
The owners and drivers didn't want to ditch Firestone because their tires don't fail and they never have to worry about safety.
I had 35" Kenda MTs on my JK. I got 80,000 miles out of them . The only reason I didn't replace them with Kenda was because there were none available at the time I needed new tires. I never had issues balancing them and I prefer how they performed off road over my current tires. The Kenda's cleaned out better.
After searching online, I found a brand called Kenda Klever. After installing them, I did a review video on the tires and what I thought about them. Overall, they have been a good tire. Alot of comments I have read say they are hard to balance. I have not had any issues with them so far. I plan on doing another 4-6 month update video review on them to see how they are wearing.
I have been running a set of Firestone Winterforce 2 UV 235/65R17 on my 4Motion Tiguan for the past two winters. They have been a great winter tire for me. Really great in the snow and I have had no issues on dry pavement while interstate cruising at 80mph.
I also live in Vegas, just had Firestone Firehawk Indy 500’s put on a month ago and have 0 complaints
Firestone fire hawks, summer tire, but all four was around $600
I worked for Firestone installing tires for a while, and those tires are pretty bad. I guess all budget tires are probably the same, but I wouldn't want those on my car. The number of recalls that went out on those was crazy, almost weekly. They also wear pretty damn fast, and don't grip for shit.
