A fully prepared tire doesn't have any problems at all against weather conditions. This is the case of Firestone's WeatherGrip product too. It is an all season passenger tire that has placed new technology that helps with incoming challenges. It is also good to mention that its price is very affordable for the US market. The WeatherGrip is produced for coupes, family sedans and station wagons.
The beginning aspect is that of the Three Peak Mountain Snowflake symbol presence. It shows the verification for usefulness during all four seasons, and especially on wet and full of mud, gravel roads. Going on, the special tread mix extends the lifespan of the WeatherGrip, thanks to its thick rubbery texture and traction focused, directional pattern.
Moreover, the 3D full depth sipes promote even wear, and so the ride is more comfortable and quiet. Then, Firestone's hydro-grip technology package uses a rounded design that pierces through standing water. Adding to this, comes the grooves that reduce the risk of water summing. The semi open shoulder blocks with the snow grip claw technology provide additional contact to the road, and so the breaking is enhanced on all surfaces. Going deeper, a single-ply polyester casing supports two steel belts, giving protection. Then, a nylon increase aids in handling performance and allows for a maximum speed of 130 mph.
Furthermore, Firestone gives a 65,000-mile limited distance tread life warranty. It comes in many popular sizes, some of them being: 195/60R15, 235/45R18, and 245/60R18.
