I put 235/45/19 Firestone Destination LE3s on my '16 and it was about $1200 because of the size.
Moved on from the run flats to Vredestein Quatrac Pro+. No run flats, no bubbles, and a SIGNIFICANT improvement in ride and noise. Seriously, switch away from these tires and you will only regret not doing it sooner
I use Firestone Firehawk Indy 500’s
Great tyre, a little less money than the Michelin or Bridgestone.
Yeah, I have 20k with these on my Mazda6 and I wouldn't say they're unresponsive. In fact I would say they're quite responsive in that they like to track in the direction you're turning, so the car gets encouraged to dive into turns. One thing I have noticed is that they feel much more dead if you let them get low. Keep them at 36psi.
I’m glad the series asked Firestone for a bigger differential in pace between the reds and blacks. A lot of the time last year it seemed largely negligible.
I managed to get her setup with some Firestone all seasons, with hazard warranty for 600 out the door at a Firestone auto center.
Put a set of Vredestein Hitracs on my mom's CX5 and she loves them. Quiet and excellent in the rain.
The Vredestein Quatrac Pros on the HRV were the best all around tire I've had and I'm pissed they discontinued them in the size I need. Very quiet, 90% of real snow tire performance.
The tires I currently have are Firestone Firehawk Indy 500s, which were on the car when I bought it. For my use case I generally like them, with one exception: wet weather performance. Even though moderate NorCal doesn't see too many rainy days, I've felt myself losing traction/hydroplaning on quite a few occasions. If it weren't for this issue, I could easily see myself just replacing them with another set of Firehawks and calling it a day
I have a vendetta against Firestone since they exploded on my Explorer and nearly wrecked me, only had like 10k miles.
