OVERVIEW
The Firehawk A/S V2 is Firestone’s best high-performance all-season tire, and features a denser pattern of channels for good water drainage, extra biting edges for snow, mud, and slush traction, and a design that’s aimed at better handling, even as the tread wears down. Additionally, the Firehawk A/S V2 is backed by an up to 50,000 mile limited manufacturer tread life, depending on the tire’s size.
The Firestone FireHawk A/S is an all-season high-performance tire specially designed for everyday drivers who are looking for year-round traction and extended treadwear at an economical price. Ideal for performance sedans, sports cars, and sporty coupes, the Firehawk AS gives you the confidence to drive on the road during dry, wet, and even light snow conditions. This is thanks to the asymmetric tread design molded with silica-enhanced, long-link carbon tread compound which creates a strong grip and biting edges on the road even when it’s wet, slushy, and slippery. The multiple groove channels evacuate water efficiently all while reducing the risk for hydroplaning. And because there are numerous full-depth grooves and sipes, tire performance is better and treadwear is slower. Within the internal structure are twin steel belts supported by polyester casing which improve handling precision and high-speed capability.
The Firehawk Indy 500 from Firestone is an ultra-high-performance tire that’s designed for use on sports cars and offers drivers more control on wet roads.

The Firestone Firehawk Indy 500 is a performance and high performance, summer tire manufactured for passenger vehicles and SUVs. This model has some touring sizes as well.
The tire promotes excellent summer weather road gripping ability. The new high performance silica-enhanced L. L. Carbon tire compound and the aggressive asymmetric tread pattern work together to ensure a safe driving experience in dry and wet weather. The silica in the compound and the L. L. Carbon strengthen the tire and ensure exceptional wet weather road gripping ability. The center Proprietary Pulse Grooves upgrade the tire’s water dispersing ability to ensure a safe drive in wet conditions by preventing dangerous hydroplaning situations.
The tread pattern sports wide shoulder tread blocks that improve the cornering and maneuvering ability. They provide additional biting edges which firmly grip the road during such maneuvers. They maintain road contact at all times, which makes the tire’s maneuverability exceptional. The special innovative tire compound and the tread pattern’s center circumferential grooves boost the road grip during braking. They create friction at the moment of braking which ensures a shorter braking distance and heightened braking ability. The better braking and cornering make the tire easier to control in summer weather conditions.
The Firehawk Indy 500’s internal structure and the shoulder tread design’s large tread blocks promote a better steering responsiveness and driving stability. The structure features high-turnup polyester casing and twin high-tensile steel belt and nylon reinforcements that maintain the tire’s optimal shape under the driving pressure. As the tire keeps its original shape, it does not deform under the driving forces affecting it, which not only stabilizes the tire against the pressure, but it also allows the model to perform to its utmost capability. The tread pattern keeps its contact with the road which upgrades the steering responsiveness, allowing the driver to quickly and precisely control the vehicle.
