I've enjoyed the "garbage" Indy 500s on my Challenger since shortly after I bought it, but they're getting up there in age and will be replaced in the spring. Quite possibly with another set. Had another tire in mind as a potential contender, but now I can't remember which one. That car is used for hauling butt on curvy roads, has never been driven in rain, but on hard packed snow. Then the Firestones are all but useless. And I'm sure that worn ones can be interesting in rain. I have DWS06s on a couple of vehicles and really like them, but if not driving on snow the DW version would be fine for me. They really impressed me on wet pavement, although that was years ago and tire offerings have changed.

Pros: good on curvy roads, impressive on wet pavement
Cons: useless on hard packed snow
Vehicle: Dodge

Firestone Destination LE3s are amazing! They are more of a highway type tread, so if you're looking for a more aggressive tread pattern, check out their other tires. Firestone All-Seasons are a well-handling option for wet and dry conditions.

Pros: amazing, well-handling option

Firestone is a great tire brand! I trust them with all my vehicles. The Firestone Destination LE3s are great tires. If you're looking for some better handling in wet conditions. I'd go with the Firestone All-Seasons.

Pros: great tire brand
Cons: better handling in wet

I'd highly recommend the Firestone Destination LE3s. They're usually warrantied for 60k miles and a great middle of the road tire.

Pros: great middle of road

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
