Firestone Firehawk GT

Description

• This tire has a dual personality. On one hand, its all racing-inspired in looks and performance, with a wider footprint that takes corners like a pro and traction technology that gives you rock-solid control on wet surfaces. On the other hand, an advanced technology called Veri-Pitch that minimizes pattern and road noises often found in performance tires. It doesn't get any better than that.
• Continuous Center Rib - Helps reduce noise while providing constant road contact to enhance straight-line stability. Enhance responsiveness, as well as wet and dry traction when accelerating or braking.
• Veri-Pitch Noise Reduction - Helps reduce road noise
• Spiral Wrap - Encircles the whole tire with a continuous nylon wrap , helping the tire hold its original shape to improve high speed capability.
• Asymmetrical tread pattern - Features large tread block elements on the outside shoulder features for dry performance, while the inner shoulder is comprised of a greater number of smaller tread elements to improve wet weather and snow traction without significantly sacrificing dry performance.
• All-Season Tread Design - Enhances year-round performance with open-slotted shoulders.
• Large outside shoulder blocks - Help deliver better cornering performance
• Steel belt construction - Adds durability and resists punctures
• Wide footprint - Improves cornering
• Silica-based tread compound - Provides outstanding wet performance.
• Polyester Cord Body Plies - Helps provide a smooth ride.
• Lateral Grooves - Efficient evacuation and channeling of water that helps reduce hydroplaning and improves wet traction
