Quick Wearing Tires

This is the second set of tires that I have purchased. The first set wore down at 30,000. There was no tread on all 4 tires evenly. Had to purchase another set through before warranty was up at a cost of 50% off per tire. The second set of tires are now wearing down just as quick at only 12,000 miles and the tread is at 5mm. At this rate they will be worn down long before warranty. Tires are not quiet at all, very noisy.

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.

Needed A set of all seasons for winter, glad I got these.

I recently purchased my Wrx last April and its been a wonderful car. I live in Wi though and was looking for a good set of performance winter tires and theres not a ton of options for my factory tire size. Decided to go with these since it was the only name brand tire I could find that could be mounted and balanced for under $1k. These tires are actually pretty impressive, recent snowstorm made these tires shine. Get up and go, no problem, stopping about what you would expect. Ice they do not handle well, but not many tires will without studs. If you're looking for a performance tire that can handle winter, these are it.

Tire overall aspect

Great design and well made They are a little softer than most which helps on the bumps.mileage is the same no change and I would definitely know if there was I watch the gas and mileage between gas fills.very quite ride just make sure you have a quality shop install them and check the valve stems for leaks tires are great just make sure your installer is just as great that is wear the problem starts with a bad balance or install otherwise the tires are excellent and do what the are supposed be boasting Firestone makes a great tire ....not a 721 of the past if you recall in the 80s the tires are made very precisely and are great products bravo with all the competition that is going on bravo

Firehawk AS V2

3rd set of firehawks, 2 previous sets did not last long. Both sets start showing excessive wear at 10,000 & 20,000 miles eventhough tires rotated at 5,000 miles & alignment checked good. Giving Firestone last chance to see if tires do not wear excessive. If they do will not buy Firestone Firehawks again or any other brand

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.

Smooth Ride

I just purchased these tires yesterday, and can already feel the difference in the way the car drives. No more vibration, and the car just feels so much more controlled.
