Tires OEM BMW or Firestone

Firestone Tires

I've had these on my Civic SI for over a year. They aren't as good in grip as PS4S's but far better than the budget tires I've driven on in the same price range. They seem to fare better under heat than the Extreme Contact Sports, and are predictable.

Pros: predictable, better under heat
Cons: less grip than PS4S
Vehicle: Honda Civic

I felt the difference immediately in terms of grip and also road noise ( of which I was most presently surprised). Had a couple rainy days and I can say I have never experienced tires that can grip so well in the rain. These tires however I never had an issue in terms of grip they just love to hug the road and make the car feel so planted.

Pros: excellent grip, low road noise
Vehicle: Lexus
Mileage: 2000 km

Yup! I run these as part of my summer-only wheel and tire package on my Sportwagen here in CO. My car is just a daily driver that I don't push particularly hard and these tires exceed my expectations. Not noisy and plenty of grip. Fine in wet too though we don't get a whole lot of rain and standing water around here. I've only run them one season so far but if they keep performing like they have, I'll continue to buy them.

Pros: not noisy, plenty grip
Vehicle: Volkswagen

Running them on my quattro Audi. Love them! Best value tire for a daily driver... Once my OEM tires went at around 21k miles (goodyear eagle F1 summers), I went to a set of summer michelin PSS and those were extremely sticky and insanely responsive but also very noisy and became very unsafe under about 40°F (plus they're a bit expensive). Those only lasted me 15k miles so i was disappointed in the longevity, then I heard firestone came out with this tire right when I needed new ones so i ordered a set (I was the first in my entire area to have them) and they've been pretty good to me so far. They're not as good as the michelins at the very edge of handling but they are much quieter, less harsh on the ride, and work in a much wider range of temperatures (I've had them down to under 20°F). For the price and the fact that they're almost as good as the michelins and certainly better than the goodyears I would definitely recommend them.

Pros: best value tire, quieter
Cons: not as good handling

Mileage: 33796 km

Pros: good grip, quiet

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.

Pros: got my moneys worth
Cons: not the best

Mileage: 34000 km

I had a set of Firestone Winterforce 2's on the WRX, and they were downright dangerous if they were on anything other than snow.

Cons: downright dangerous on non-snow
Vehicle: Subaru
