I also live in Vegas, just had Firestone Firehawk Indy 500’s put on a month ago and have 0 complaints
Firestone Indy 500 Firehawk
Very reasonable price for the quality, and they last a while. I had Toyo Proxes T1 Sports before and they were great, but very expensive, and they did not last at all. I prefer the Firestones for daily driving.
The Firestone Firehawk Indy 500 are an Ultra High Performance Summer tires and have been a great for me. They were super popular when I last bought tires at least. Maybe there is some new hot affordable performance tire? Definitely would recommend checking them out. They handle a stage 2 tuned mk7 gti pretty well for what it’s worth.
Im running the firestones on my s4. Definitely would recommend those.
I save some cash and can get in sooner with a local Firestone. They do good work and have never let me down.
For summer tires I'd go with Michelin pilot sport 4s if you have cash to burn or Firehawk indy 500s if you are looking for a good price/performance balance.
In the end, anything is better than that garbage Firestone FR740 OE tires. That tire is crap on light snow, and so so in the rain. I am very happen I have better tires now.
Firehawk Indy 500. Fantastic value, outstanding dry and wet performance. I had them on my last car (Taurus SHO) and immediately put a set on my CC. Love them.
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.
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."
