While not a 200tw tire the Firestone Firehawk Indy 500 (340tw) not only costs significantly less but I've ran them with excellent grip on my WRX.
The original Winter Force tires are streets ahead of the Winter Force 2.
I like the set of firestone winterforce I just put on our XC70 this year so far. Took them out on snow/ice a few times so far and they feel like I would expect any dedicated winter tire to feel. What took me by surprise is how they drive in the dry... perfectly reasonable handling/braking and reasonable road noise for a winter tire. These actually handle and brake better in the dry than bridgestone weatherpeaks.
Kumuha ako sa kanila ng Yokohama Advan Fleva, 1K-ish cheaper than other shops (yes, even sa Yokohama mismo)
Another solid budget pick is the Firehawk Indy 500 (basically a baby Pilot Sport but cheaper). I ran them on my old Mk7 and they were awesome for daily + fun drives.
Yokohama A052, best 200 thread tyre avaible on the market personally.
Took my PB down at Tazio Nuvolari 10s after 2 sessions.
I'm on Yokohama Advan v701's after purchasing this past summer. Grip in the dry is excellent and when pushed to the limit they are very predictable. They're also so good in the rain it's crazy. they are quiet and comfortable on the shitty Dallas roads. It's been great dailying them so far. Only complaint is that I'm technically not supposed to drive them under 40F but hey they are summer tires.
We had Firestone Transforces on my dad\u2019s truck when I was in high school. Slightest hint of mud and they would pack up and slick off in an instant, but man they lasted a long time.
Personally I stay away from the Firestone stuff. Hard compounds that aquaplane easily and still have worse rolling resistance than the premium tyres.
Yokohama (wag blue earth madali magkabukol pag nalubak)
