Has anyone ran the Firestone Firehawk Indy 500? They seem to have fantastic reviews on tire rack

Good summer tires.
2007 Ford Edge SEL, Powerstop F/R Brake Kit, TXT LED 6000K Lo & Hi Beams, W16W LED Reverse Bulbs, 3BSpec 2.5w Map Lights, 5W Cree rear dome lights, 5W Cree cargo light, DTBL LED Taillights

If tuned:  Take note of the strategy code as you return to stock (including 3 bar MAP to 2 bar MAP) -> take car in & get it serviced -> check strategy code when you get car back -> have tuner update your tune if the strategy code has changed -> reload tune -> ENJOY!

Been running them for 2 years now, no issue.  Great summer tire.

They're an awesome tire, the only drawback for me is they wear quickly.  Most of the performance oriented friends of mine that have them barley get 25K out of them and they don't hot rod around all the time.  Just a thought......
2010 MKS Eco, Airaid, SCT X4, Unleashed, SP542 plugs, 3 bar MAP and current daily.

2006 Pontiac GTO M6, 1 of 101 exactly like her, bone stock, lost to flood 5/19, gone but not forgotten....

I ended up going with Falken Azenies fk510 since I couldn't get a 315 35 20 in the Firstone
