My setup is Firehawk Indy 500s on stock Austin wheels. 225/40/18s. In terms of performance, the tires have been about as good as I could expect on the road. Turn-in feel is excellent, road noise is subdued, and the comfort is good. There is still some wheelspin off the line, but for the price the tires are excellent.

Pros: excellent turn-in feel
Cons: some wheelspin
Vehicle: Volkswagen

I put Firestones on all my cars, I've been running the "Destination" line of tires for several years on multiple cars. Never had any weird issues with them at all. Id definitely recommend Firestones to put on any daily driver.

Pros: no weird issues

DUNLOP Tires

I run Audi A3 17" wheels with Dunlop 3D sport winters. They're not the best snow tire, but they are significantly better than an all season and I have yet to have any issues getting around. Car feels stables, and brakes are actually effective unlike with all seaons.

Pros: car feels stable
Cons: not the best
Vehicle: Audi A3

The Indy 500 is slightly better performing, while the RE760 is slightly more comfortable / refined. Which do you prefer? I had a set of the 500s and they were a really good value.

Pros: good value

Same tires. Same smiles. Best bang for the buck BY FAR. Dry grip is incredible compared to goodyear eagle f1's and continental sport contact. Not to mention they're inexpensive. I've got 10k miles and they show little signs of wear.

Pros: incredible dry grip, inexpensive
Cons: little signs of wear
Mileage: 10000 km

I ended up with the firestones. I know they are not the best winter tire but I'd take them over an A/T in the winter. I got my moneys worth the day I put them on because we got a decent "wet" snow storm and the main road out of our neighborhood was closed do to an accident as usual. I had to take a alternate rout which is a steep curvy 1 lane road and I was one of the few to make it all they way out without spending time in the ditch or guardrails.

Pros: got my moneys worth
Cons: not the best
Vehicle: Nissan
Mileage: 34000 km

I had vibration problems on my ‘16 GTI (at 75+ MPH) with new Firehawk Indy 500’s on new Neuspeed hub centric wheels too. Balanced 3 times still the same problem. Swapped into different tires. Problem completely solved.

Pros: problem completely solved
Cons: vibration problems
Vehicle: Volkswagen

Not the same vehicle, but, on my truck (2wd, V8, manual), I installed Winterforce 2 tires, and while I haven't driven in any snow with them yet, on wet or dry pavement, they are horrible. Not much traction at all, even if I try to drive "carefully."

Cons: horrible on wet/dry pavement, not much traction
