I just put the Vrederstein Quatrac Pro+ on my 24 Mini Countryman S All4, replacing the Pirelli runflats that were good tires, but kinda loud and you could feel every imperfection in the road. I don't have a lot of miles on em yet, but they are definitely quieter and more comfortable.
My Vredestein Quatrac’s have been great, and are pretty reasonably priced.
Firestone Indy 500 tires the car is sucked to the ground.
I have Firestone Winterhawk 4, and they are great. Its basically budget version of Blizzaks as they are owned by Bridgestone. I am in central Europe and we have mild and wet winters as well, my driving profile includes everything, I will do 500km on the highway, mountain pass and then city driving and they work perfectly. We have them on 3 cars already. I was thinking about something more premium, but I am perfectly happy with them.
I personally use 205/50r16 Firestone Winterforce 2's on my MK7 for Iowa Winters, it's a great tire and I've had little issues with it.
I currently have Firehawk AS V2's on mine. I live in an area that gets all four seasons, and they've served me well in the rain and snow/ice. I'm sure I'm sacrificing some summer performance, but that's pretty far from my priority. No issues with excessive wear or tire noise
My wife bought a car from carvana and i noticed on delivery that the tires were at the wear bars. Took it to Firestone, they filed a claim with SR on the spot and had new tires in a couple of hours. Can’t complain about that.
Firehawks are a pretty solid high performance tire.
Looks fine other than it’s wet and has other people’s rubber on it. You’re gonna find out that the Indy 500 is not a track tire. So when you push really really hard, it’s gonna get really greasy and loose very quickly.
I would recommend just outright avoiding Firestone. Aside from Firestone tires being garbage (except the Transforce line)
