Unlike rival tires, Firestone Firehawk tires stand out by assuring drivers of the following:
More control on wet roads
Firestone equips its Firehawk tires with more channels compared to their preceding generation tires to improve water evacuation, helping to reduce the risk of hydroplaning.
Low road noise and superior snow performance
The Firehawk tires do not emit as much road noise as some of their competitors. Whether on the highway or off-road, Firehawk tires maintain a low noise output to ensure a comfortable ride.
Additionally, when it comes to mild winter climates, these tires exceed expectations. They have wider circumferential grooves and more biting edges, which improve overall grip, acceleration, and braking potential on snowy and icy roads.
Extended tread life and durability
Tire durability and tread life are extremely important factors that can make or break a tire series. Fortunately, Firehawk tires are extremely durable, with two high-tensile steel belts wrapped spirally with nylon to increase overall strength and durability.
Some of the models in the lineup also come with a limited treadwear warranty.
Reasonably priced
Performance tires are renowned for their responsiveness and steering accuracy, but their high price makes them less popular. However, Firestone Firehawk tires, which took design and engineering cues from Firehawk race tires used in the Verizon IndyCar Series, make it possible for regular sports drivers to get access to these tires at reasonable costs.
Take your sports car experience to the next level by fitting your vehicle with the appropriate high-performance Firestone Firehawk tires.
