Performance All SeasonPerformance
Firestone Firehawk GT
The Bottom Line
The Firehawk GT is a solid choice for drivers who need a performance all-season tire with good dry grip and handling, backed by a 50,000-mile treadwear warranty. However, its wet grip is lacking, so it's not the best option for those in consistently rainy areas.
Important Note
Wet grip performance is subpar, making it a less desirable choice for those who frequently drive in rainy conditions.
Pros
- Treadlife is a strong point with a 50,000-mile warranty, which is competitive for a performance all-season tire.
- Dry grip score of 8 ensures reliable traction in dry conditions, making it suitable for spirited driving.
- Handling performance is solid with a score of 8, providing a responsive driving experience.
Cons
- Wet grip score of 5 is below what you'd expect from a performance all-season tire, which could be a concern in rainy conditions.
- Traction rating of 'B' is not as high as some competitors, potentially affecting overall grip in challenging conditions.
- The Milestar Weatherguard AS710 Sport offers better wet handling, which might be preferable for those in wetter climates.
