Firestone Tires

I am looking at a set of Firehawk SZ50's for my '89 GTA. Does anybody have them? What do you think?

I'm running a set of them now, but its NOT the EP version of that tire. The grip, in both the wet and dry is EXCELLENT. I've even used them to road race with. Mostly in the rain, but also sometimes in the dry. I do have two of the EP version of the SZ50's and they don't seem to have as much grip, but then they are supposed to last a bit longer.

I also run the Firehawk SZ50s, and love them to death. They replaced a set of General XP2000s which, in spite of the fact that they still had plenty of tread depth left, headed for the shredder simply because I got totally fed up with their traction-free design.
