As good as my dedicated winter tires!

This is going to be a long review and for good reason. These tires have only been out for a few months so there is hardly any reviews out there, so I'm going to be thorough to help fellow RWD car owners that have been in my boat. I own a Mustang GT that I daily drive year round. Some think that's crazy, but even in Omaha there is only snow on the streets for 7-12 days a winter, so why would I not drive the car I love year round? I used to have a separate set of winter and summer tires, but that is expensive so I researched for a better solution. The claims Firestone make on these new V2 tires seemed to good to be true, but I like Firestone so I took a chance. We just got hit with a snow/ice mix and there is packed snow and ice on the streets and these tires performed AS GOOD as my old winter tires. I stopped on a steep hill and was sweating getting started again (the ultimate test), but I got going fine with no traction control kicking in. I'm seriously blown away. I also drove aggressively on dry streets in 29 degree temps and they performed very well, felt firm and very low noise. I can't speak for summer performance yet, but if you have a RWD car and are looking to handle the winter, these tires are for you. Well done Firestone!

The Most Quiet Tire I've ever bought

I didn't originally want this model of Firestone. I went to my local tire shop with a different Firestone model of tie in mind, but the Salesman said trust him that I would love this AS V2 model. He was NOT kidding! These tires took about 30 dB (decibels) of Cabin noise out of my car. I have to play a book on tape while riding b/c it's so quiet, it might lull me to sleep. My gas mileage is better, too! Went from a 46-48mpg average to 48-51mpg average. My already comfortable car is even nicer due to these tires. Grip. These will handle a corner like nothing I've ever bought in the past. RE: the 1 star review I read before posting this review.... Possibly you had a bad experience b/c your car may have been out of line, or you forgot to rotate them, or possibly it's just the brand of vehicle! Who knows... This is the 2nd set of Firestones I've bought in 5 years for my 2 vehicles and they won't be the last!

New firehawk

I just got these tires a few days ago and I can already tell the massive improvement the new firehawk as v2 have with handling and cornering. I had a pair of the indy500 ones on it when I got it and they were a little old. But I swear these news shows gave the car more life. I love how it handles now.

Wet Traction

I wanted to put a few thousand miles on these tires in order to give an informed review. I researched tires for several months and kept coming back to these due to their hydroplaning resistance ratings and the science behind the tread design made sense. I commute to work about 400 miles per week in the Tampa Bay area where daily heavy downpours are pretty common. I could not be more impressed with the wet traction. Dry traction is excellent as well, noticed an immediate improvement in handling over my previous Firestone All-Seasons, which were a good tire. I have seen some reviews that complained about them being noisy, but I have not found that to be the case at all. If they make a size to fit your vehicle, buy them.

Excellent overall quality

I've had these tires for 3 months, my gas mileage has increased,the comfort and quietness is incredible. Can't wait for the snow to fly and see how they do. By the looks of the tread pattern it should be no problem.

Pleasantly surprised

Replaced my Conti DWS's and couldn't be happier. These stick as well or better on dry pavement and certainly better on wet. If these hold up well to warranty mileage I have my new go to tire for performance AS.

Complete waste of money!

I bought these at 50000 miles on my odometer. At 75,000 miles 2 of them already had to be replaced. I am at 89k and they are terrible. Extremely loud and low traction in the rain. Will never buy a Firestone brand again.

FIREHAWK AS V2

My 2021 Mustang GT handles well with the FIREHAWK AS V2's I purchased. I love the tread design, It handle the road better and they are a lot quieter than the Pirelli P Zero Nero I had on my car. I'm very satisfied with my recent purchase!!!

New Ford Mustang Tires

So far driving with these tires I have had no slipping or skidding issues with the car. With a Mustang GT you get more back end torque and the old tires would spin out and not hold traction. These tires hold the road much better.
