Tires Firestone or WEST LAKE
Eu andei com West Lake durante 2 anos com um Up e + 1 ano e meio com um i30 e mesmo na chuva me passavam muita confiança.
The OEM Bridgestone tires were terrible....The Firestones have been great.
I got HP108s which were $400 total with installation they work just as well as my “Firestone firehawks” which was $860let’s just see if the tread last as long. They work excellent in the rain and I drive on country backroads and highway 6 days a week to work 120 miles a day and I drive like a maniac they’ve been holding up well
Ran Firestone on my old truck, same model number it came with. 65k, on the 1st set, 70k on the 2nd and had 65k on the 3rd set when I sold the truck.
Mostly highway driving, a lot of country roads. Tire pressure and regular rotation is what got me there.
For my cheap ass I think Indy 500 look the best out of cheap and commonly available in the US
I oversteered on old Westlake tires just driving 40 kph on a damp road. I’ve had Dunlop DZ102 delaminate under high heat. Dunlop LM703 sidewall bulging issues without any impact.
I currently now run either Michelin Pilot Sport 5 and Yokohama Advan AD09 for my cars. So much better grip, better build quality.
Rp18 is the best of the low budget tires.
My 2018 Stinger had the summers PS4S and they wore like crap. Replaced them with Firestone Firehawk Indy 500 extreme summers as I already had a 18" squared Blizzak set up. Cheapest summer only I could find that had decent reviews.
I have a vendetta against Firestone since they exploded on my Explorer and nearly wrecked me, only had like 10k miles.
It's wild to me that Firestone has been so invisible and irrelevant in the consumer market ever since the Ford Explorer fiasco, yet still so active in Indycar.
