Firestone Firehawk Indy 500 325/30R19, Summer, High Performance tires.

Features and Benefits: Summer weather traction; Enhanced controllability; High speed performance; Firestone Firehawk Indy 500 TiresThe Firestone Firehawk Indy 500 is a performance and high performance, summer tire made for passenger vehicles and SUVs. This model has some touring sizes as well. The tire utilizes a high performance, silica and L. L. Carbon compound and an asymmetric tread design to improve the summer weather performing capability. The compound elements actively resist heat build-up in summer temperatures, easing the pressure off the tire and optimizing its dry and wet traction. The treads surface contact and ideal road-to-rubber ratio enhance the grip on the road surface to improve dry and wet traction. The treads center circumferential grooves are Proprietary Pulse Grooves which combat hydroplaning. They channel water from the footprint, ensuring the tires surface contact even in wet weather conditions. The tread designs surface contact upgrades the controllability. The internal structure and the optimized shoulder pattern work together to keep the ideal road contact throughout the performance. In this manner, the tire greatly boosts the steering responsiveness and the driving stability, ensuring the drivers better control over the vehicle. The shoulder block placement allows the tire to improve the maneuvering capability. These tread elements improve the grip on the road surface with extra biting edges, optimizing the cornering power. The durable tire compound and the optimized tread pattern manage to increase the braking capability. They create friction between the tire and the road surface at the moment of braking, significantly reducing the braking distance and promoting a secure driving experience. The Firestone Firehawk Indy 500 guarantees exceptional high speed performance. The models internal structure features a high-turnup polyester casing, twin high-tensile steel belts and nylon reinforcement greatly increase the high speed durability. They work together to maintain the ideal tire shape under the high speed driving pressure. In this manner, the tire is able to securely perform at its greatest high speed capability, as the ideal shape does not deform. As a result, the tire provides a safer high speed durability. Manufacturers recommend changing tires every 10 years. As long as tires are properly stored before they are sold, the year of their manufacture will not shorten their service life.
