Firestone Firehawk Indt 500? Anyone running them? Im in need of tires and keep reading good reviews on tirerack. Do they run wide or narrow? Just curious. Thanks guys
I run them on my 02 Firehawk, They wear really well, hold decently in the corners and are good in the rain, my problem is the damn traction control light stays on anytime I get in the gas

I was looking at the indy 500's because I couldnt find any originals in 275. All the websites only have a few sizes left. My prblem now is I dont know if I want to spend a little more and get some KDW2 or continental extremecontact DW's. Decisions, decisions

Take your time and do the research on Tires.
There is some truth to the old saying with Tires... You get what you pay for. Shop around and ask them - if you are not satisfied, can you return them for another set if not damaged & under XX miles on them ? Most good shops will work with you until you are happy. Especially if you are spending $ 200 to $ 300 per Tire.
I just picked up a set of BFG G-Force T/A KDW 275/40ZR17 98Y . Very happy so far.
