I had a set of Indy500; they performed well for a UHP for the price, but definitely noticeable difference with the set of Conti ExtremeContact Sport 02s that replaced them.
I had bought the Ford 9000 a little before that mission and I used it to take the trailer to the oil rig thinking "I'll get like half way there before getting stuck or flipping". I only had all terrain tires and the best engine. Suspension and transmission stock but she handled it beautifully.
I’ve done tires, tint, rust proofing (fluid film), dash cam, tailgate assist, and a few other minor things I may be forgetting.
General G-Max RS or Firestone Indy 500s are solid options aswell with good grip and way friendlier pricing. I ran Indy 500s on my old Camaro and they felt great in normal driving without being loud or sketchy in the rain.
Cooper and Firestone make decent tires if you don't plan on tracking it.
Those are good tires but way too heavy at 44lbs vs 24lbs for stock tires.They will kill your mileage and performance. I went with Firestone destination at2 in 235/65 r17. Only a few pounds more (28lbs) than stock and they perform great!
Ford for one had al tyres of the same spec ! My ecosport came with 205/60 r16 for all the 5 !
Depends on what your tires are and size. If you don't wana wreck leave traction control and such on. Of course around turns you can still wreck. And rwd cars around turns that are wet etc are easy for the rear and to let go
I went to them for new tires on my Hyundai, my car had 96k on the originals, the wear was even and they still had decent tread. Guess what, they said I needed alignment.
I had the Firestone AT years ago on a Ranger. Complete trash! Didn’t last for shit & barely any off-road traction.
