I was going to need tires, and saw many positive reviews of the Firestone Firehawk Indy500, which were significantly cheaper than the Michelin Pilot Sports like I had on my old E36 M3.
The tires were solid. Seemed to have traction in the snow, but were pretty slippery on the dry salted roads. Ride quality/road noise isn't bad at all, even at high(er than i should've been going) speeds.
I am running 38 in the Indy 500’s so far.
I have been running Firestone Indy 500's for the last 15k miles and for $85 they are awesome.
For performance tires, the best bang for buck is the Firehawk Indy 500. I have them on my Skyline and they transformed the feel. There's more grip, I'm more confident in it, and they didn't cost a ton of money. Plus they look awesome.
ive commented a few times about these tires, theyre great. grippy enough for fun, compliant enough for daily drivability, and cheap enough that you can replace them at will. highly recommend.
From what I've read, the Indy 500s are superior to my stock tires in every way and are also $70/tire cheaper.
I use these a summer tire on my BRZ and they're great, they tick all the boxes at a great price. Don't get me wrong, there are definitely better tires, but I could get two sets of these for the price of Michelins.
I literally just installed these last night on my car. I totally agree with you. Look great, road noise is great, and grip is great and very noticeable.
Landsail tires are cheap Chinese tires... I'd replace them as soon as is financially reasonable and possible, as I wouldn't trust my life to Chinese tires.
