I moved up to Firestone destination LE3 because it is mostly a daily driver for me. If you want a good all season with excellent wet traction and long treadlife and you don't need snow tires, I recommend the LE3. Night and day difference. WV is quite rainy, so I always go for wet traction.
Replaced with Firehawk Indy 500s. Quiet, super-grippy, predictable.
I got some Firestone Destination XTs about 1k miles ago in the stock size. I wanted LT tires for the stability towing. So far they are working great. Way better off road and wet traction then the stock Pirelli Scorpions. But they hang on to gravel bad.
I'd recommend Firestone Firehawk Indy 500. They're really good and affordable tires that have excellent grip. They don't have much road noise and last decently long.
I have run the Indy 500s on two Minis, Audi A8 with a 630HP tuned motor, Volvo V90 and Mercedes E550 with a Renntech tune. EXCELLENT tires for the money, Tirerack has great prices!
I’m currently running the Indy 5 hundies and I do like them and they grip very well. Not so great in heavy rain tho
I rode Indy 500s on my focus st for many years. The performance and price are amazing. The amount of grip transformed that car. The ride quality is a little harsh but not noisy.
Had the 500s on my old BRZ, they were amazing, especially in the wet which is hard to find on summer tires.
Buy the best you can afford, but name brand can be deceiving. IMO both Goodyear and Firestone are lower tier brands.
I had the Firestone Steeltex the ones before the Transforce with good tread They had less cracking than I see on yours. Drivers front blew out on the way home from vacation, 70 MPH and barely missing the concrete median. Personally I would replace them and personally I would not go with Firestone
