This asymmetric pattern maintains road contact, increasing steering responsiveness and driving stability. Large shoulder blocks firmly grip the road surface with extra biting edges, boosting cornering and maneuvering. The stronger internal structure and the heat-resistant compound promote exceptional high speed performance. This construction does not allow the tire to deform under pressure, while the compound prevents heat build-up along the tread area. These elements upgrade the driver's full control over the vehicle, promoting a safe driving experience. Superb all season performance is guaranteed with this model. The asymmetric tread design, wide grooves, and all season compound boost the year-round performance. This tread design grips the dry, wet, and winter surface, while the compound keeps the rubber flexible in warm and cold temperatures. At the same time, large circumferential grooves eliminate water and slush from below the footprint, preventing hydroplaning in wet situations. This combination offers the tire's safe performance throughout the year. The model also enhances its service life and usability. This tread design and rubber compound prevent irregular and premature wear formations along the tread area. In other words, the tread design is able to evenly distribute the driving pressure along the tread area. The compound slows the treadwear rate down with wear-resistant materials. As a result, this tread design and rubber compound offer a longer-lasting tread life. The Firestone Firehawk AS V2 offers a quiet and comfortable driving experience, thanks to the ideal tread elements. The asymmetric tread pattern is able to lower road noise before they reach the vehicle's cabin. This is thanks to the tread pattern that negates sound waves while tires are in motion. The combination lowers road disturbances and allows the passengers to enjoy a quiet and comfortable ride. 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.
