Tires Firestone or FULDA

Firestone Tires

I've been pretty happy with the cost/benefit of Firestone Indyhawk/Indy500/whatever they're calling them these days, on the stock wheels. They don't last long (I get 10-15k miles out of a set) but they're damn cheap ($650-$750), and break traction quite easily and predictably, if you enjoy going a little sideways often. I usually am running the Flying Miata alignment specs with these tires break loose fantastically easily and enjoyable for me on that alignment. On a factory alignment though they are reasonably grippy for spirited street driving. Again though the biggest benefit of them is they are super widely available (because Firestone) and CHEAP.

Pros: good cost/benefit, predictable traction, widely available, cheap, reasonably grippy
Cons: don't last long
Vehicle: Mazda
Mileage: 16093 km

Very happy with Firestone Destination XT. As quiet as all seasons, great snow traction more than decent offroad

Pros: very quiet, great snow traction, decent off-road

I have done both FireHawk and G Max and been impressed with comfort. Way better than the OEM continentals that it came with, and much cheaper than Michelin.

Pros: impressed with comfort, cheaper

I had the Firehawk Indy 500 from Firestone on, and they we're great. Lot's of grip going around corners and still felt very secure during heavy rain. I paid around 900 for a set of four on my 18 inch wheels.

Pros: lots of grip, secure in rain
Vehicle: Mazda 6

Firestone fire hawks. But the ride is perfect and so is the handling with those tires, for me at least. I have continentals currently, and I much prefer the Firehawks.

Pros: perfect ride, perfect handling

I went with a set of Firestone Destination AT/2's, and the road feel is great. Tight steering and great performance on bad roads/snow.

Pros: tight steering, great performance
