Firestone Firehawk Wide Oval
I was headed to the Autobahn in Joleit Ill. for a track day last Sunday when I had an incident with my front Michlein Pilot. A sizable chunk got tore out and I was forced to stop at a no name tire shop to get a replacement. The only performance tire they had was the Firestone. It is a Ultra performance tire not a Maximum performance. They were about $140.00 each.
I was shocked at how well they performed. It was about 90 degrees and tires were sticking very well. So I do not know how they will do on a cooler day. I would rather have replaced them with the Goodyear Eagle GS-D that I have on the rear and really like. Does anyone else have any experience with this brand and model?
