Tires NITTO or Firestone
I'm on my 3rd year with Firestone Firehawk A/S tires. Roads in Oklahoma are crap around here. But no problem with my 18's.
Firestone Weathergrips are great tires. I had them on a 2011 Escape before it got hit by a retard. They handled an Alberta winter no problem, however my studded winters were obviously still better.
I have these on a BMW 528i and they’re great. Good responsive steering and is confident in canyon carving in Colorado. I disagree with every negative you listed.
I've had great luck with firehawk indy 500. They're 320 tw. I'm an okay intermediate driving a 2010 mx5. I'm not sliding the car around much at all.
They're great street tires and have been able to get more than 6 track days on them thus far. Tires still has more in them.
Firestone Indy 500 tires the car is sucked to the ground.
Love my nitro ridge grapplers. Quietest but best looking tire imo.
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.
Airing up tires would be about the only thing I'd trust Firestone with and it would have to be free to even trust them that much.
G2's suck donkey nuts. Had them and switched to PS4's before they were close to gone. Would never buy them again.
I have the nittos as my daily tires, but I autocrosses on them for about 8 events before I got rid of them. Do not get them. They're terrible in the wet, wear very quickly with camber, scream when no where near maximum grip, you can never get them hot enough and I'm pretty sure the sidewalls are 90% jello.
