Had the 500s on my old BRZ, they were amazing, especially in the wet which is hard to find on summer tires.
The Indy 500s are an amazing tire.
The big thing I love about the Indy 500, is that it has amazing wet performance compared to other tires I've run. It holds lateral g's very well and the tire wears evenly as long as you are aligned correctly. I've had some other summer tires that tend to wear on the edges way faster.
I was really happy with the Indy 500’s on my VA. Might get them again for my VB when I can justify it. Highly recommended
Firestone Indy hawk. Good summer tire
Im just now looking at replacing my OEM Dunlops at 17k. These are on a 2019 HD Road Glide.
I'm running a ducati 848 evo and I have the sportmax gpr300 in the front and a roadmaster 3 in the back I've got 2k miles of very spirited riding on them so far and I've got to say I feel like I've pushed them to the limit several times but I've never felt as if they were going to let go on me. A few times the roadsmart or roadmaster or whatever in the rear a felt get a little wiggly but the sportmax on the front has never felt as if it was lacking grip at all whatsoever my only issue thus far is that the sportmax gpr300 is showing quite alot of wear after 2k miles where as the rear tire isn't showing much wear at all.
Firestone firehawks Indy 500s amazing tires I had them on my 2002 mustang GT convertible
I had my WRX for a year and a half, and the entirety of it spent on the stock Dunlop tires.
Above 50°F, go ham. Have fun. They're great.
Below 50°F, don't take high speed corners. If you normally go 40 around a corner, go 35 instead.
That being said, I never lost traction with them, even in 40°F rain. The only time they ever broke loose was when there was snow on the ground, which is expected.
I was naive and thought I'd be able to get away with the stock Dunlop tires until my breaks locked up on a snowy road approaching a red light at 5mph. Get some all weather tires asap!
Swap them out! The Dunlops are unsafe below 40F.
