Tires Firestone or OEM Honda

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.

The tires are amazing. I love the grip and control I now have. Granted the tires that were on it were 8 years old (PO has the tires for a long time) so any new tires would make a world of difference

Got 34k out of mine and got a flat so replaced with firestone indy 500 and love them so far. Got 3.5k on them.

I got the Firestone Indy 500 in 215/55/17 and they have a LOT of grip but the sidewalls are very soft so there's not much steering feel.

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."
