Tires OEM Mazda or Firestone

I have run the Indy 500s on two Minis, Audi A8 with a 630HP tuned motor, Volvo V90 and Mercedes E550 with a Renntech tune. EXCELLENT tires for the money, Tirerack has great prices!

I’m currently running the Indy 5 hundies and I do like them and they grip very well. Not so great in heavy rain tho

I rode Indy 500s on my focus st for many years. The performance and price are amazing. The amount of grip transformed that car. The ride quality is a little harsh but not noisy.

Had the 500s on my old BRZ, they were amazing, especially in the wet which is hard to find on summer tires.

The Indy 500s are an amazing tire.

The big thing I love about the Indy 500, is that it has amazing wet performance compared to other tires I've run. It holds lateral g's very well and the tire wears evenly as long as you are aligned correctly. I've had some other summer tires that tend to wear on the edges way faster.

I was really happy with the Indy 500’s on my VA. Might get them again for my VB when I can justify it. Highly recommended

Firestone Indy hawk. Good summer tire

Buy the best you can afford, but name brand can be deceiving. IMO both Goodyear and Firestone are lower tier brands.

Firestone tires are garbage that are loss leaders to lure people into their ripoff repairs.

I had the Firestone Steeltex the ones before the Transforce with good tread They had less cracking than I see on yours. Drivers front blew out on the way home from vacation, 70 MPH and barely missing the concrete median. Personally I would replace them and personally I would not go with Firestone
