About This Tire

The Firestone Firehawk GT 185/55R15 is a high-performance all-season tire designed for sporty sedan and coupe drivers who prioritize responsive handling and year-round traction in everyday driving. Its asymmetric tread design and high-silica compound focus on balancing steering response with wet and dry weather capability. The tire features Firestone's UNI-T Technology, which integrates the bead, casing, and tread components for enhanced overall performance.

Large outside shoulder blocks provide cornering stability, while inside shoulder blocks include additional lateral grooves and sipes for weather traction. Continuous center ribs contribute to responsiveness during acceleration and braking on both wet and dry surfaces. Driver feedback indicates solid handling performance across conditions, though comfort and treadwear fall into more moderate territory.

Compared to touring-focused all-season tires, it emphasizes sportier handling and steering response over maximum comfort and longevity. Overall, it's a practical choice for performance sedans and coupes used primarily for spirited daily driving in varied weather conditions.
