Tires BRIDGESTONE or Firestone

Firestone Tires

For performance tires, the best bang for buck is the Firehawk Indy 500. I have them on my Skyline and they transformed the feel. There's more grip, I'm more confident in it, and they didn't cost a ton of money. Plus they look awesome.

Pros: more grip, confident feel
Cons: cost a ton of money

ive commented a few times about these tires, theyre great. grippy enough for fun, compliant enough for daily drivability, and cheap enough that you can replace them at will. highly recommend.

Pros: grippy, compliant, cheap

I use these a summer tire on my BRZ and they're great, they tick all the boxes at a great price. Don't get me wrong, there are definitely better tires, but I could get two sets of these for the price of Michelins.

Pros: great price, ticks all boxes
Cons: better tires available
Vehicle: Subaru BRZ

I literally just installed these last night on my car. I totally agree with you. Look great, road noise is great, and grip is great and very noticeable.

Pros: great grip, low road noise
Vehicle: Nissan Micra

I've had these on my Civic SI for over a year. They aren't as good in grip as PS4S's but far better than the budget tires I've driven on in the same price range. They seem to fare better under heat than the Extreme Contact Sports, and are predictable.

Pros: predictable, better under heat
Cons: less grip than PS4S
Vehicle: Honda Civic

I felt the difference immediately in terms of grip and also road noise ( of which I was most presently surprised). Had a couple rainy days and I can say I have never experienced tires that can grip so well in the rain. These tires however I never had an issue in terms of grip they just love to hug the road and make the car feel so planted.

Pros: excellent grip, low road noise
Vehicle: Lexus
Mileage: 2000 km

I got the Firestone Indy 500 in 215/55/17 and they have a LOT of grip but the sidewalls are very soft so there's not much steering feel.

Pros: a lot of grip
Cons: soft sidewalls

My Civic Hybrid has Bridgestone Ecopias. Grip is pretty bad, but they are very predictable, in that they kind of start to warn you when they are losing grip, then gradually go from having grip to not having grip. Very smooth transition and very easy to correct any slides. Have noticed they appear to be wearing quite quickly as well.

Pros: predictable, smooth transition
Cons: bad grip, wear quickly
