Firestone Indy 500’s are a cheaper option that gives similar grip to continental extreme contact sports. They are just horrendous in the rain
So far I really like them. No range hit I can’t blame on them being brand new tires, great warranty, and way better traction and cornering.
As far the the tires themselves: for all-season tires, I'd recommend Nokian WRG, as they're all-season tires that have a winter tire rating, so you'll get better traction in the snow.
Have a couple sets of the Firestones currently for another car. Will buy more when the need arises.
Spirited street driving with the occasional track day, just fine.
I've got the firehawks on mine and i love them. I chose them precisely because of their price.
Can't speak to the super sports, but the firehawks are absolutely worth the money
Mine wore 11 year old nokians untill its rusty demise in january when i had to say farewell. They where rock hard but boy it was fun going sideways everywhere
My recommendation would be the nokian hakkapeliitta. These are by far the best snow tires I've ever used. They're also reasonably priced.
Nokian Hakkapelita’s … used to run pirelli sotto zero 3 and blizzaks … never going back. Nokians are WAY better in the winter.
Nokian Hakkapelitas. They are expensive, but once you try them you can't go back.
Firestone tires are garbage that are loss leaders to lure people into their ripoff repairs.
