Tires Firestone or GISLAVED

Firestone Tires

Yeah, I have 20k with these on my Mazda6 and I wouldn't say they're unresponsive. In fact I would say they're quite responsive in that they like to track in the direction you're turning, so the car gets encouraged to dive into turns. One thing I have noticed is that they feel much more dead if you let them get low. Keep them at 36psi.

Pros: quite responsive, encourages turns
Cons: feel dead when low
Vehicle: Mazda 6
Mileage: 20000 km

I’m glad the series asked Firestone for a bigger differential in pace between the reds and blacks. A lot of the time last year it seemed largely negligible.

Pros: bigger pace differential
Cons: pace largely negligible

Pros: hazard warranty
Vehicle: Toyota

Firestone is a budget “decent” tire. Crossclimate 2 is made to be VERY good in snow and rain (it also lasts the 60,000 miles it claims).

Pros: very good in snow, rain
Cons: budget decent tire
Mileage: 96560 km

Tenho alguma experiência com esses pneus, principalmente em caminhão e vans. Nessa sua medida, realmente compensa bem mais os importados, nacional só vale a pena num aro 17 para cima, quando eles ficam competitivos.

Pros: compensa bem mais importados

I don't see any tire alternative that is a better choice than Firestone. They aren't perfect, but they are usually very good and don't have a lot of catastrophic failures.

Pros: usually very good
Cons: aren't perfect

My dad had a Ranger that came with the recalled infamous Firestone Wilderness AT's. When they did the recall, they put the shittiest summer street tires on as a replacement with absolutely no traction in the snow. That's the worst tire I've ever ran on a vehicle.

Pros: none
Cons: no traction in snow
Vehicle: Ford Ranger

I wanted to write this because there are almost no reviews on this tire online. Firestone claims it's a big improvement over the previous generation. Traction is good on wet and dry roads. Slippage prediction is also decent. Road noise is fine. Ride comfort (in terms of feeling the road) is really good. Steering responsiveness is ABYSMAL. It's like driving an aquarium on top of a trampoline. Due to the fact the sidewall seems to be made of marshmallows, it's quite terrifying doing any aggressive driving. Highway driving, making turns specifically, is terrifying. Overall: Do not buy unless it's for rears only, or you're driving a car that is exceptionally light weight. If the steering and body movement responsiveness was fixed, this would be an excellent tire. Sadly the responsiveness is so bad, the tire feels legitimately dangerous.

Pros: good traction, decent slippage prediction
Cons: abysmal steering responsiveness
Vehicle: Infiniti
