So anyone on here running the Firehawk Indy 500s on their stock wheels? I'm running dedicated winters so I thought I'd try getting a dedicated set of summers.

 

Don’t have personal experience with them but they were in the runnings for my summer tires. They are a popular choice in the GTI crowd.

 

I know a lot of people run them in the S2000 community. My friend has run them and hated them, but he also tracks his car and thought that after a couple heat cycles they turned to stone.

 

I'm running 205/50R16 Indy 500's on 16"X7" wheels in summer, spring and fall. I have dedicated winter tires. I have driven them in a couple snows when I waited too long before switching to the winter setup They are an OK tire for the money. I'd buy them again. I still get 40+ mpg so they didn't effect fuel economy or if they did it wasn't significant enough for me to really care. Traction seems good in the dry. Rain or wet traction is OK. I think it should be better, but it's livable.

 

I ran them on my GK5 and was happy with their performance for their price.

 

I personally don't have it on my Fit but on my S2000. They are doing well so far for the price and just occasional driving. I really don't have any problems with them for street driving.
