New rubber today, Vredestein hypertracs, good tire ????????
I bought Vredestein Wintrac Pro and have really liked them. I live in western Massachusetts and have a very long gravel driveway up a steep hill. The tires are great and get very good ratings.
Firestone Indy hawk. Good summer tire
Had the Wintrac Pro on my Type R for the past 5 winters and drove them for about 50000km all through central Europe and southern Scandinavia. Never had issues with them, both in the wet and in the snow.
I have the wintrac pro on our GLE, think they’re a really good tire and will probably buy them again. They are also really good in the wet, didn’t have any surprising moments this winter, both in snowy/slushy and wet conditions.
I have the Quatrac 5 on my wife's Civic. I feel like they're kind of noisy, but that's definitely the car's fault to some degree. Otherwise, they ride well and have great grip.
Firestone firehawks Indy 500s amazing tires I had them on my 2002 mustang GT convertible
I got 65k miles out of the Firestones that came stock on my Ram 2500. I was so pleased I bought the same tire at the dealership when it came time to replace.
Good:
Excellent on ice for non studded
God like handling in the snow. Rivals the Michelins. This tire was seriously impressive. If it wasn't for the drawback I experienced below this tire would be a no brainer
VERY good handling on ice
Bad:
Dangerous handling during heavy rains. Aquaplaned very easily. I had a small light car. If you get these tires, remember this post and be cautious the first few rains until you get a feel for them. It may be that my car that was light for the thread design (2512 lbs with short wheelbase)
Tire wear goes fast on dry hot pavement
Noisiest tire I've had on my vehicle to date
Hated these Firestone’s on my e30. Got very noisy when older, grip was inferior to a even a 10mm smaller width fallen rt615.
