## Description

The Firehawk Indy 500 tire is Firestone's ultimate in sport performance, inspired by our racing heritage. With our new tread design featuring a proprietary Pulse Groove water channel, we have dramatically improved handling and braking on wet roads (as compared to the Firehawk Wide Oval Indy 500 tire). And with a new outer tread design, you can take a corner with great confidence. So if you're a car enthusiast looking for a tire that can provide extreme performance and extreme fun, this is the tire for you. W speed rated.

Review: Like the tires - Tires seem to hug the road well. Car isn't heavy so was concerned about extra weight description but so far so good.
Review: Super sticky tire - It’s my daily driver in the summer sidewalls a little stiff but I have probably 20,000 miles on them. They still look good.
