For that special driving rush, a driver needs the best equipment in order to achieve maximum performance. With this being said, Firestone comes with help. It's new Firehawk Indy 500 is specially designed for racing performance in warmer weather, such as in summer. Sporty coupes, sports cars and sedans are exceptional with this premium passenger tire.
Starting off, the asymmetrical constitution of the rib compound offers a better touch with the road with improved traction. It forms with a new, silica-enhanced long link carbon tread rubber. Then, the interesting siping design used here provides the necessary grip with the track, even on wet courses too.
Moreover, with the modern pulse groove technology, the Firehawk Indy 500 will evacuate water rapidly. This way, the ride will be more safe, and the braking distance will be shorter. Additionally, the wide and independent shoulder blocks make the car more maneuverable in corners. The tire stiffness is reduced even at maximum speeds of 168 mph.
Moving on to the internal part, a high-turnup polyester casing will provide protection. This is also, because of, the beneath twin high-tensile steel belts and nylon reinforcement. With this, even on the most problematic track, the Firehawk will dominate.
Finally, Firestone provided the customer a 90-day buy and try, when he can return or change the product. Chevrolet Corvette, Volkswagen Passat, and Ford Mustang go very well with it, as the reviewers say. On the US market are many available sizes, but some of them are 195/55R16, P245/50R19, and 305/35R20.
