This results in seamless control, allowing the driver to rely on fast and accurate steering responses. The tire ensures that the vehicle responds promptly to the driver's commands, which improves driving safety as well. The tire's structure is secured against the driving pressure affecting it throughout the drive. The wide shoulder blocks with the lateral notches enable the tire to better disperse the forces of acceleration, braking, and cornering. The Firestone Firehawk Pursuit AWT promotes better comfort with its well-designed tread. The tread is wide and extremely detailed with the zigzag grooves, the lateral notches, and the siping on top of each tread block. With these tread elements, the tire can maintain close contact with the road surface. This enhances its ability to absorb the shock of driving, which would otherwise generate loud road noises. It remains quiet instead, enabling the driver to fully focus on the road ahead. All weather tires receive the three mountain peak and snowflake (3PMS) symbol for their exceptional winter weather performance. They are all season tires with extra winter weather grip, in order to guarantee safer year-round durability. This ensures their true and secure driving ability throughout the year. 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.
