For people who are looking for the latest and the best summer tires, Firestone has something special. Let's meet the new Roadhawk 2 ENLITEN. This tire is a premium quality summer tire designed based on the well-known, Roadhawk.
Above all, in the case of the Roadhawk 2 ENLITEN, Firestone uses the latest mixing technology and high quality materials. More exactly, they use a NanoPro-Tech compound shaped into an asymmetrical pattern with a modern design. Wide shoulders and three continuous center ribs separated by four linear grooves provide robust abrasion resistance and longer mileage. According to multiple internal tests, the new Roadhawk 2 provides the best wet grip, enhanced ride comfort, and improved energy use compared to its predecessor. Moreover, it shows up to 20 percent longer mileage and up to 12 percent lower rolling resistance. As a result, Roadhawk 2 ENLITEN is one of the best options for EVs and hybrids.
On the other side, wear resistant rubber compound, optimized pattern, and strong casing design to withstand daily mix challenges like heavy traffic, sudden braking, and motorway speed. For safety reasons, this model features four linear grooves and special sipes that discharge water from under the tire contact area, thus making the ride more enjoyable and stressless. When it comes to presence on the market, the Roadhawk 2 stays well. It will be available from January 2024 in Europe and the Middle East in sizes from 17” to 21”.
